craviotto

Just received this photo from the Craviotto team in Nashville, TN. My kit is finished! As it turns out, the very first green sparkle kit in this series. Pretty cool. I’ll drive up next week to pick them. I’ll take some photos of the factory and then plenty of nerdy photos and reviews. . If you...

New guy here, looking for some wisdom. I’m also—how shall I put this?—not much of a drummer. I’m a self-taught hobbyist, and father of a dude who drums in his high school jazz band. So I have a decent DW kit in the house, nice set of K’s, etc. Enough preamble. Down to it: I’m looking to add a...

Up for sale is a very unique and rare Craviotto Unlimited 6.5"x14" snare drum in a WMP finish. Johnny Craviotto made only but a few snares that had a wrap on them and this is one of them. This is probably one of the most sensitive and best sounding snares I've played. Asking $900 + shipping...

Hello folks - I own a 5x14 solid walnut N&C - very nice indeed, but not a fan of their hardware and throw off, screws on it and hard to thread a strap if you don't like the strings the snare wires come with... so I'm about to order a Craviotto 5.5x14 solid walnut...should I? What are your...

I'm very interested this snare, and input on how it sounds. I love my AK 2 piece brass 6.5 x 14. Heard several examples via youtube, but obviously not the same as having it under hand in person. Thanks Guys! Mikey

A Craviotto EXTREMELY Limited snare drum. (14" x 7") Includes Craviotto bag, original heads and Craviotto Drum Key! I got this from Johnny himself at the 2004 NAMM show. (R.I.P Johnny) I honestly don't remember what he called the finish, I apologize, but it looks an awful lot like the Blue...

I finally took a dive and ordered a pair of 3 mm stainless steel Angel hoops, and naturally I took 2 days testing them to all my snares to see what the fuzz is about, and at the same time I did comparison videos hear how they sound back to back. Nope, they were not cheap, but I have to say...

Up for sale I have one very lightly used Craviotto Diamond, chrome plated drum key. I received this key new from the Craviotto Drum Company a year or so ago. It is in excellent condition, and has been lying in a box for a long time. I'm not sure that you can purchase these separately anymore...

Believe or not, there is actually a Finnish official competition going on (with nice Zildjian price) that challenges you to play the famous Jeff Porcaro's beat from Toto's Rosanna as well as possible. What a wonderful, inspirational and CRAZY idea, I LOVE IT. :D They ask for 15 second sample...

Hey DFO gurus - quick question and possibly asked and answered previously at 1 point (apologies): On the fence in deciding between a Maple Craviotto 6.5 x 14 Johnny C Series vs a DW Collector Series VLT snare (ideally maple but also wrestling with the Cherry Mahogany combo) Price points...

Hello all, I need to let this wonderful set go as I just acquired another Craviotto kit with bigger drums that better suites the music I mostly play. I would love to see this great set go to someone here on the forum! In that spirit, I am dropping my asking price to an even 5,000 + shipping...

I just purchased a George Way 6.5x14 solid maple snare with a Craviotto shell! I went into a pawn shop a while back and saw it in there, but it was priced way too high so I waited until the price got as low as it would go and I finally got it. I was surprised when I looked inside the shell and...
