Natal start the new year entering the world of acoustic drums, and they've done a sterling job.
First stop: snares.
Snares include: US Ash, Maple and Bubinga as well as a range of steel snares. All snares include a three-position throw-off (see video below) and Natal Custom snare wires and copper-plated mounting plates.
