Crush Drums created quite a stir at the UK’s Music Industries Awards last week by winning “Percussion Product of the Year 2013” in conjunction with Rhythm Magazine. The Crush Sublime E3 maple kit beat off some of the biggest names in the drum world to win the coveted award.
A company launched just 3 years ago, Crush Drums have arrived in the UK only recently. The Sublime E3 kit delivers the full and warm tones of much sought after vintage drums with the advantages of modern shell hardware design. Bearing edges and shell construction were carefully chosen for each individual drum. All shells are hand selected 100% North American Maple, which is known for its extremely warm tone.
This is what Rhythm magazine had to say when they reviewed the Sublime E3 kit in September:
"This review set has a beautiful shimmering orange/red wrap, shown to great effect on the deep bass drum with its colour matched rims. Once applied, the bearing edges are double cut to 45 on the toms and bass drum and a single, sharp 45 trim for the snare. The edges are then triple-sanded, resulting in possibly the smoothest surfaces of any drums I have reviewed - so smooth, a peach would seem rough in comparison".
