A ferociously punchy steel-shell snare that delivers the kind of crisp, cutting crack favoured in rock, funk or fusion. Built to the specs of Chad Smith, it pairs a 14-inch diameter with a 5-inch depth for a tight, responsive feel that still hits hard. Black nickel plating and robust hardware give stage-worthy durability while maintaining sensitive dynamics and clear snare articulation.
Features:
- Hoops: 2.3 mm SuperHoop II
- Lugs: CL-55 “Bridge-Style” minimum-contact lugs
- Tension rods: precision-fit stainless-steel (SST-5047)
- Throw-off: “Gladstone Style” vertical-pull strainer
- Snare wires: S-022
Includes gig bag. Head has seen a decent amount of use but still sounds great.
