Built to order at the A&F factory in Austin, Texas, this Antique White Field snare drum features super low, warm tones courtesy of a thin maple shell and vintage "baseball bat" bearing edges. In contrast to the usual sharp and narrow edges of modern drums, this hand-carved rounded edge mimics the fat bearing edges of vintage drums, creating the distinctive punchy sound to go with this drum's throwback looks. To let the thin wood shell resonate freely, this model features no interior reinforcement rings. 

This snare drum completes the custom vintage look with tall wood hoops, six single-point raw brass tube lugs and a bright white color.
