But in the hands of someone not so picky, there's the possibility of a lot of crap being passed around.

My opinion is that in the hands of the right person doing the picking, there a possibility of getting some real nice chunks of wood. On the other hand, the wood comes from a time when the maple in the northern areas grew more slowly because the non-played-out forests were denser and individual trees didn't get as much sunlight.

Of course the whole idea has the potential of being gimicky and over hyped. It's notably darker in color and is denser. Mine has a squirt pivot point of 17-18 inches, similar to my other Josey shafts. I don't know whether that's *because* it was in the lake or in spite of it. The shaft I have is a really nice piece of wood. Lake Superior is particularly deep and particularly cold. Timeless Timber is a name of a particular company that's fished this wood out of Lake Superior. thnaks guys really appreciate your replies. are timeless timber shafts that great of a hit compard to standard rock maple shafts? i can ask keith about all of these but i guess i want to get your opinions coz i dont want to be bias. i have a problem with sneaky petes coz if the butt is thick i tend to hold the cue and move my grip forward thus shortening my bridge and there is too much cue at the back of my grip which knocks the balance out of my stroke. i was wondering if the butts of his petes are thick coz in the pictures it seems thick. i want to get his basic cue but with a timeless timber shaft its way off my budget. i am in the market for a josey sneaky since that is all i can afford.

i have average filipino sized hands and the taper of the bender sneaky butt is just perfect. i played with a friend's mike bender sneaky and the butt feels really nice just thin enough that it fits my hands perfectly. I also like to get your feedback how his sneaky pete butt thickness in the grip area compared to the mike bender sneaky pete butt taper. and i like to know how his timeless timber shafts play as compared to his standard rock hard maple shafts if you have played with these for sometime? i like to ask anyone of you who owned and shot with a Keith Josey sneaky pete for a while not test hits. For those that have yearned to own a piece of drum-making history, this is the time.Been a while since my last post. Timeless Timber River Oak is also dark, warm, and very musical.įinished in Natural Satin Lacquer, complimented by custom-plated Antique Bronze hardware, and outfitted with all-new Lux Leather Bass Drum Hoops, less than 100 of these stunning 6-piece sets will ever be made. As is the case with all water-salvaged Timeless lumber, it is extremely dense and very resonant. These prized logs were dredged from Romania's Olt River which feeds into the famed Danube and eventually spills into the Black Sea. At more than 1,500 years old, this is a very special wood. We are proud to introduce the latest addition to the Timeless Timber legacy: Timeless Timber Oak. Then, almost a decade later, drummers were introduced to Timeless Timber Birch, a highly-coveted limited edition. In the beginning, there was Collector's Series® Timeless Timber Maple, and a legend was born.
