Canopus is a world-class company and a top contender in the drum industry. Their craftsmanship, attention to detail and passion in the pursuit of the best possible sound have earned them a rightful place in having some of the best sounding drums on the planet. I absolutely love the clear, round and resonant sound of their RFM series and the warm, rich and articulate sound of the NV60 series. With their variety of shell designs, they have beautiful options made with the highest quality for every taste…and their Yaiba drums are amazing…especially for the price!”
