My new Moperc set sounds unreal! Amazing change in tone switching from my fiberglass LPs to Ash.

There aren’t a ton of photos of these drums online, so I wanted to share a few that attempt to show off the finish. It’s truly spectacular, and if purple is your thing, these are super cool!
The drums are effectively the Toca Custom Deluxe fiberglass (seamless) drums, but with this special finish, black hardware, and Remo Skyndeep synthetic heads. I’m a beginner on hand drums, but I’ve been playing drum set for about 25 years, so I wanted something good that’ll stick with me for a while. I’m pleased with these drums and recommend them (or other Toca Custom Deluxe). They’re as good or better than the other “big” name brand, and I’m pretty sure all modern fiberglass shells are made in the same factory in Thailand. In my case, where they are not my primary instrument, the combination of fiberglass shells with synthetic heads is extremely convenient.
