IVSOM Surdo, aluminum shell, skin and nylon head, 20" x 20"

Being a member of a crew of strong surdo players is a ton of fun. You rely on each other to keep the energy up and rolling. You guys spark the band and push the samba forward. The responsibility of the surdo line is big. And when it is good, when it is driving, you elevate the room! This drum can be used as a primera/ first surdo. Or it can be used as a segunda/ second surdo. The head is 20 inches in diameter and the shell is 20 inches deep. The top head is made of goatskin, and the bottom head is made of plastic. The shell is made out of aluminum. IVSOM doesn’t leave surdos out, they also get the classy brassy hardware on these big guys.
