The new Yamaha 14″ x 6.5″ Recording Custom Aluminum Snare Drum includes a handful of special features that set it apart from just another aluminum drum. The center bead along the equator of the shell is fixed on the outside to give the drum more openness and fullness. A heavy-duty Q-type strainer gives you smooth, stable snareaction and it just feels solid. Aluminum gives you a tastefully bright tone that doesn’t ring quite as much as other metals, so you don’t have to dampen to get the right sound. Features: 1.2mm Aluminum Shell Newly designed one-piece lug Developed with Steve Gadd Center Bead Fixed to Outside Heavy-Duty Q-Type Strainer Bright, Articulate Tone Requires Little Dampening
