Tama Starclassic Maple Snare Drum - 8" x 14" Molten Brown Burst

The hallmark of a great snare is its versatility. The TAMA Starclassic Maple Snare has it all: heft, crack, bite, sensitivity, projection, punch - there's just not a tuning it sounds bad in. The all-maple shell evokes a pure tone that mikes well without excessive ringing. TAMA's Linear-Drive strainer holds the redesigned Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon Snappy Snare wires close to the bottom head for good sensitivity at all dynamics. Hold Tight steel washers with soft rubber rings keep rimshots and vibrations from loosening your tuning. And for tone tweakers, the Starclassic Maple's detachable butt plate lets you remove snare wires and swap bottom heads without affecting your settings. If you're looking to pare down your snare collection, Sweetwater drummers recommend the TAMA Starclassic Maple for its wide range of great sounds.
