Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why choose the ECLIPSE ?

A: Simply because of it's pure sound and comfortable playing.

Q: Is it hard to play the ECLIPSE drum ?

A: It takes a few strokes to get the idea. The 45 degree angle of the shells makes it a comfortable “playground” and a perfect fit for playing on your laps.

Q: Is the ECLIPSE loud enough to play with other instruments ?

A: This drum can get pretty loud. We specially designed our drum to reach high volumes by combining our powerful steel with the wright shaping and proper tuning.

Q: Is the central note also tuned?

A: Yes, it usually represents the lowest tone in the scale. It has more bass to it and sounds just perfect when combined with the higher and sharper sound of the tongues.

Q: What is the purpose of the black rubber stripe ?

A: It is there to protect the sides of the drum and for other acoustic reasons.

Q: Can the ECLIPSE drum get out of tune?
