Enter Shikari - Rob Rolfe - Custom Kit Walk through
Back in August 2017, Rob Rolfe of Enter Shikari visited North Custom Drums in Lancashire UK to discuss a kit build in collaboration with Truth Custom Drums.
Rob wanted to create a Unique sound for the tour and Andy and Rob decided on the following Shell make up for his new kit.
100% Bespoke handmade custom plywood Shells:
10x8 10 ply Maple/Birch/Maple
14x14 10 ply Maple/Birch/Mahogany
20x20 13 ply Maple/Mahogany/Maple
13x7 13 ply Maple/Mahogany/Maple
10x6 13 ply Birch side snare (not show on video)
10x8: The reason for this shell make up was to create more punch from the toms as Birch is quite dry and punchy but the maple keeps the warmth and attack so doesn’t pull too far away from the Shikari. In fact it amplifies their sound.
14x14: The Mahogany in the Floor tom was decided by Andy to give the drum a lower tone, to match a similar sound of a 16“ floor but would also be comfortable for Rob to play.
20x20: The Maple/Mahogany/Maple Bass drum
