In setting the goal of producing drums at a professional custom-design level , Kingzbeat works with American masters to understand and refine and perfect details. Most critical is specifically using select natural woods, such as Ebony, Sapelli and other full-grained hardwoods as the outer layers married to our maple and mahogany inner plys.. Minimally stained, the heartwood is a deep reddish brown and ebony color, which emphasizes the natural, interlaced patterns of the wood's natural color…. even the growth rings. Delicate but not obvious, the wood color is striking, glowing like copper wire in the sun. Low-key but with a hint of brilliance. The grain of the wood is delicate and even, revealing a noble atmosphere and the texture of original log. We complete the process with hard-wood reinforcement rings to ensure the shell maintains is roundness over years of hard use. Kingzbeat uses industry-standard American REMO® drum heads matched to the excellence of the drum shell’s natural sound. This precious combination is named XKE Xtreme King Exotic.
