Chrome Over Brass

A chrome over brass shell leads to a snare that is incredibly resonant, while the incorporation of a double bead helps to add focus to the tone and prevents the resonance from becoming overpowering. Palladium hardware applied to the drums exterior then works to improve the connection between the heads and shell itself. This leads to a sound with far more musical characteristics than most other metallic snares on the market.

Responsive & Sensitive

This drum is incredibly sensitive to your playing. The entirety of the batter head is responsive to all techniques. Rimshots sound surprisingly deep and thick; standard sticking is clear and accurate; side-sticking cuts through nicely; brushes produce expression and warmth; heavy strikes project massive tones. It really is an articulate snare that takes every drumming scenario in its stride.
