The product
The new Berlin Classic Timpani are made in accordance with 1950's Berlin traditions infusing modern technology. This means that the Berlin Classic Timpani combines the classic characteristic shape with a much improved sound. In other words, a product of quality craftsmanship. 
 
The kettle is genuinely handhammered into its characteristic shape with more than thirty thousand strokes, which radically changes the character of the copper and provides the kettle with improved timbre and strength.

The newly designed kettles have been developed with assistance from leading timpanists in Berlin and the result is increased volume and a warmer timbre that projects into the concert hall better than ever before.

The adjustable pedal system is the well known Ringer-style. However, the newly developed classic ratchet enables an almost infinitely variable operation. This system is the most reliable available on the market and requires a minimum of maintenance.
