1/6
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The 14 x 7-inch Solid Maple Radio King uses a steam-bent shell made from one North American maple plank, paired with a 30-degree bearing edge for a thick, warm response with clear articulation and full-bodied projection. Nickel-over-steel Stick Chopper hoops shape rimshots and help control overtones. At the kit, the 3-point throw-off’s adjustable snare gates and internal tone-control muffler give you two built-in ways to refine snare response and damping for stage or studio use.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage and studio setups where adjustable snare response and internal damping are useful.
- Drummers seeking the 14 x 7-inch Radio King depth with full-bodied projection.
