This places it in an especially interesting period for the Hollywood Ace name, after the earlier Radio King-style versions and into Slingerland’s 3-ply mahogany shell era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe drum features a mahogany 3-ply shell with reinforcement rings, giving it a warm, rounded and slightly dry vintage tone. Mahogany gives the drum a softer, darker character than a modern maple snare, with a woody attack, controlled overtones and a rich fundamental note.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe deeper 14\" x 7\" shell adds extra body, depth and low-end presence, making this a bigger-sounding Hollywood Ace than the more common shallower examples. It has the kind of broad, old-school backbeat that works beautifully for blues, soul, roots, jazz, Americana, vintage rock and studio work where character matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14\" x 7\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 id=\"condition\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Good Pre Loved Condition - In full working order with no cracks or structural damage to the shell.
