MHX Masters Mahogany Classic snare drums feature 4 ply 5mm 100% African Mahogany shells with 4 ply 5mm maple glue rings. Once commonly used for making shells, African mahogany all but disappeared until Pearl revived this wonderful wood in 1995. African mahogany produces the richest and deepest sound of any wood used in the drum industry today.
