Enhance Your Tone and Tuning Versatility
Looking for a different sonic flavor from your drum hoops? The S Hoop blends the best elements of classic drum hoop designs for one tonally optimized result. To start, it's denser than a traditional triple-flanged drum hoop, which allows it to dry out overtones and improve tuning stability. Additionally, its construction is closer to that of a vintage inward-flanged hoop, which helps to give back some of the tonal body that die-cast hoops can strip away. Sweetwater drummers have also found the S Hoop to be more neutral sounding (less "chimey") than die-cast hoops, allowing the pure tone of your shell and heads to shine through. Whether you're aiming in a different sonic direction or requiring the tuning dependability that only a perfectly true hoop can provide, an S Hoop will make a fantastic upgrade for your shell!
