From C&C:
The Player Date is a quality, American-made drum set at a player’s price point. This line is comprised of two shell configurations (see also: Player Date II) that are designed to handle diverse playing situations and bring a unique, vintage-inspired sound back to the drumming world. The same expert craftsmen who build our custom lines make these drums. No detail has been overlooked in creating a favorite amongst our artists and staff.
Developed in conjunction with Joey Waronker (Beck, Atoms for Peace), the Player Date I has a round, dark tone with body; an enhanced low end; and a clear, defined note. Its 7 Ply Mahogany shell has a wide tuning range and controlled decay. It comes standard with Full Contact bearing edges, 2.3mm triple flanged metal hoops, and our centered, double-ended Deco lug design. The Player Date I is perfect for the recording studio and any playing situation that requires musicality and warmth.
