Poplar, same as the shell as far as I know.
Pearl, Natal, Ludwig, Tama, Slingerland, Premier, Arbiter Drums
Zildjian, Sabian, Zyn Cymbals
PEARL, PREMIER, LUDWIG, TAMA, YAMAHA, NATAL and DW Snares
Roland, Dauz, FAT KAT and Koby Electronics, and loads of Percussion
5 Kits and 11 Snares, and I still don't have enough!

I've used them to replace damaged Masterworks hoops when I've had black kits, and you can't tell the difference.
