Woods and Construction:

The 6-ply, 5mm maple shell delivers a strong and pronounced low-end, with a punchy mid-range that will cut through a busy mix.  The 12”x7” shell dimensions keep it sounding responsive and resonant, so you don’t lose any snap when playing hard. You can therefore use this versatile snare for a variety of genres and scenarios.

A timeless satin black finish means this snare won’t look out of place in any setup, with the chrome-coloured hardware giving a classy look.

SR700 Strainer:

The SR700 strainer offers you a smooth action when changing the snare wires in on or off position. The tension adjuster firmly locks into place, so that you won’t have to worry about it undoing even if you play super-hard!

Drums

Drums are the rhythmic backbone of modern music, providing pulse, energy, and structure across countless styles and genres. From acoustic drum kits and marching drums to hand percussion and electronic systems, drums are designed to be played physically and expressively, responding directly to touch, technique, and dynamics.

Acoustic drums are built from shells, heads, and hardware that work together to shape tone, volume, and sustain. Different sizes, materials, and tunings allow drummers to create sounds ranging from deep and powerful to tight and articulate. Electronic drums expand this further by offering volume control, sound variety, and integration with recording and digital music systems.

Drums are used in live performance, recording, education, and practice, making them one of the most versatile instrument families in music. Whether played softly or with force, alone or as part of a full band, drums play a central role in driving rhythm, supporting musicians, and shaping the feel of a piece of music.

Snare Drum

A snare drum provides clarity, backbeat, and definition within a drum kit, acting as the main voice for timing and accents. Its tight head and metal snares create a sharp, responsive sound that cuts through a mix, making it essential for groove, dynamics, and rhythmic punctuation. The snare drum controls feel and expression, allowing drummers to play everything from soft ghost notes to powerful backbeats that drive the music.
