Dial in a little skinnier drum at only 12" deep + a thinner maple shell of 6 plies instead of the typical 8 plies and you get a big boom that won't wear you out the third mile of the parade. 12x24; plied maple; satin wax.
Independent Tuning is the focus of what's going on here -- loosen one side and the other stays put. That means you can scream your "Teks" on the treble while still rearranging bowels with the bass side. This one features a built-in mic and all black ropes on natural oil/wax finish. 16x22; plied maple; satin wax.
'Cause sometimes your Alpine band needs its logo custom-painted on the front of your leader's Tupan shell! This Tupan features a wooden hoop for the bass side with a metal ring on the treble side. "Framed" around the painted band logo is an organic-shaped burned trough so that the dye of the shell color stays away from the paint. Can't wait to see these guys on stage! 14x18; plied maple; satin wax.
Here's a view of a Tupan with another version of our snazzy new-ish Independent Tuning. This time, the "belts" down the center are of the same rope as the rest of the tuning ropes. Boom! 15x20; plied maple; satin wax.

Thought I’d try something a little different with the finish here: same as usual, but a little more peach fuzz lifting off of the wood grain—a little “earthier.” Still plenty of low end, without backbreaking weight, for your parading around! 8¾x20; plied maple; matte wax.

It's quite fantastic how much sound comes out of this scaled-down Tupan! Don't let the skinniness fool you into thinking it sounds thin. Oh, and it's purple, which is amazing. 8¾x20; plied maple; satin wax.
