Was there any difference in shell material between heavy and thin shells?!? Generally, what wood was used for the Signature line? Shells are 12-ply beech, birch or maple (Signature SE) depending on model with 45 degree bearing edges Decorative veneer inside the shell Heavy = beech Thin = birch SE = maple Or am I completely in the wrong direction?!?

Signature light were birch shells. That is correct. They were all 12 ply 7mm, and were the same spec as Sonorlite snare and bass, while the Sonorlite toms were 9 ply 6mm. |

All 12ply - meaning the bass drum was also 12ply (7mm)?!? A friend has a mixed set (12 light, 13 heavy, 16 light) and I'm not sure about the bass drum... |

Thanx Greg - this sure is a valuable information... I'm sure my friend will call me when he changes heads - then I'll be able to both help out and make an inspection...
