Description

Dating back more than a century, brass has been a preferred snare drum shell material providing extreme clarity and performance in a variety of musical settings. The antique nickel brushed finish over a 1.2mm brass shell exudes understated elegance while facilitating desirable tonality and sensitivity throughout the extremities of dynamic range.

Features

The smooth and silent OP-01 strainer is a simple and classic functional design featuring a laser-engraved knurled vertical fine tuner adjustment.
The integrated bridge sets the optimal angle allowing the snare cables to establish a true and consistent point of contact with the resonate side head. The result is extreme responsiveness at all dynamic levels and playing areas of the drum.
Chrome plated « I » lug lends classic and elegant look as well as ensuring maximum shell resonance
The revolutionary « Rigid-Cast » claw hook design utilizes an oblong receiver hole enclosed in a diecast housing which prevents cracking, ensures proper tuning alignment, and allows flexible tolerance for both synthetic and natural heads.
Frequency Modifier (FM) accessories allow performers to quickly modify the snare drum’s tone. Will not muffle desirable frequencies or stifle the drum’s response, but rather allows the player to enhance and expand the pallet of sounds available.
