Very few historical associations are concerned about forensic authenticity. Unusually Bach is played on valveless trumpets or Mozart on historic pianos.

Many historical marching bands move with the times. They play instruments that visually fit into the historical picture but where modern technology means significant benefits in terms of sound and handling. In an era of shortage of time musicians especially want one thing: to have fun and joy on drums with his instrument!
For all those marching bands, we offer hybrid models that embody a balance between modern drum and historical setting.
Tension screws enable the separate equal tuning of batter and snare side head as well as a quick and trouble-free head change; the additional deco rope keeps the visual relation to the historic instrument. An integrated rope lock prevents the rope from falling down when changing the head.
