Build Quality 

The backbone of this 14" x 6.5" snare is a 7-ply 6.85mm hybrid birch/walnut shell. It boasts a 45-degree batter side and a 35-degree snare side. Add to this a triple vented chamber, and the end result is a snare with a real dank, gloomy and dark nature. However, when it's required, you'll notice a welcome amount of bite when played more aggressively.  

A number of smart features assist in other areas too. A cylinder drive snare strainer and butt-end adjuster make use of a self-lubricating bearing. This helps to create a far smoother operation. Smart microlock adjustment is present too, allowing for more accurate control over your sound, while stopping your snare wires from becoming loose while you practice, perform or record. 

Sound Reinforcement 

Tuning drums can sometimes be an annoying and time consuming process. However, thanks to the SONIClear bearing edges included here, those headaches are a thing of the past. They guarantee a great sound, even with limited tuning experience. How do they work though? They allow the head of the drum to sit flatter; this in turn ensures better contact with the shell. This leads to a lower and stronger overall pitch, as well as far more consistent tuning. The actual tuning range is enhanced too!

The SONIClear bearing edges work in conjunction with the Sonic Saver Hoops. These were especially created for the Black Panther series. They ensure that your snare remains in tune, while simultaneously improving its projection.
