Give your drum kit its voice with a Mapex Snare Drum. From versatile snares for everyday playing to premium instruments built for more specific sounds and playing styles, Mapex offers a varied selection of shell materials, sizes and designs. Whether you're looking for a crisp and responsive main snare, a deeper drum with extra body or a compact secondary snare to expand your setup, there's a Mapex option to suit a wide range of drummers.
Shell material and dimensions both play an important role in shaping the character of a snare drum. The Mapex range includes wood choices such as maple, poplar, mahogany, walnut and cherry, alongside metal options such as steel snares. Different diameters and depths provide even more choice, with shallower drums typically offering a fast, articulate response while deeper shells can deliver additional body, depth and power. This variety makes it easier to choose a snare around the sound and feel you're looking for.
The Mapex MPX range provides a great place to explore different snare sizes and shell constructions, including maple/poplar hybrid and steel designs. For drummers looking further up the range, Mapex Black Panther Snare Drums offer distinctive shell materials and specifications designed to bring their own individual character to your kit. The premium Black Panther Design Lab collection takes this approach even further, combining carefully considered shell designs and hardware to create expressive snares for demanding players.
