Acoustic Drums | Kirchhoff

Exclusively to LDC the very best Acrylic shells you’ll play... ...in our opinion of course! Handmade in Germany and only available in the UK through LDC if you want something exclusive, something to make people really sit up and listen you have to seriously consider these drums.

Kirchhoff Schlagwerk Sparkle

Until now Acrylic shells have been made by heating and bending the shells leaving them at times structurally fragile due to the shells naturally wanting to straighten out. Kirchhoff shells however are made using a unique method to create the perfect shell. The acrylic is melted down in a mould and then rotated at high speed. The melted down acrylic is poured in to these spinning moulds. As the acrylic is spun in the moulds it sets and a perfectly round drum shell is formed.

Cutting a double 45 degree bearing edge means the drums produce a fat and full sound, sitting very well in a rock/pop context. Boasting extreme bass tones and a very present top end, these shells are exceptionally versatile and respond wonderfully to head changes.

Even with the single ply factory fit heads, you can get a great sound out of these drums. You have three choices of shells Acrylic clear, Acrylic colour or Acrylic Sparkle.
