Many thanks to DRUM! Magazine and reviewer Brad Schlueter, whose review of our Verry Cherry drums is now also available online. As Brad noted, these drums feature a 3-ply all-cherry shell, with a solid tone-generating Rezo Core® at the center, so they are totally about tone.

We'll be at NAMM in a couple weeks, so come 'round and have a listen. Verry Cherry delivers handcrafted tone deluxe.

The Stone Custom Drum Niles shell pack has the heart and soul of a late-1970s Slingerland drum kit. In fact, it's a dead ringer. That's because the Niles' 5-ply shells are formed in the same molds Slingerland used for over half a century. With maple and poplar wood coming from the Great Lakes area and authentic reinforcement ring-less construction, they sing with the same brilliant attack and rich, open tone as the originals. They even look the part thanks to Slingerland-style appointments — Stick Saver hoops, bullet lugs, and amber-finished shell interiors. You truly won't find a production kit that comes as close to a classic Slingerland as the Stone Custom Drums Niles shell pack.
