Bolt on Shell

In taking an entirely fresh approach to lug design, 

our craftsmen have come up with an ideal design 

that delivers greater sound performance and 

convenience. These new lugs hook onto bolts that 

are attached to the shell, which allows the lug 

casings themselves to "float" eliminating any direct 

contact between the lug and the shell. As this design 

reduces the amount of hardware actually attached to 

the drum shell, the shell is allowed to vibrate freely. On an 11-inch shell the lug bolts, as well as 

the YESS mounting system, are all attached to the shell at its nodal point to greatly minimize 

influence on shell resonance to deliver maximum tone.

Another benefit these lugs provide is when it comes time to change the head, it is no longer 

necessary to remove the tuning bolts from the lugs to remove the hoop. Just loosen the bolts 

enough to slide the lugs off of the bolts and the hoop comes right off. No more lost washers, etc. 

and head changes can be done quicker and easier than before.

* Nodal point mounting is patented by the Nobel & Cooley Drum Company.

The new claw design found on the 

Absolute drums offers quick tuning, 

smooth head changes, and noise free 

performance. The tuning bolt utilizes a 

wing type bolt that aids in tuning the bass 

drum. Inside of the newly designed zinc 

die cast craw is a plastic ring insert that 

keeps the bolt from loosening and falling 

off. The inner side of the claws is given a 

plastic covering that prevents noise and 

offers protection to the hoop from 

damage.

* Beside the Absolute Nouveau Lugs, the 

Absolute lugs that were offered on 
earlier models are also available.
