The DW MFG True-Cast bronze 14x7" snare drum is a masterful collaboration between DW artist and collector Dave Elitch, and the innovative DW R&D team. Handcrafted in DW's iconic California Custom Shop, this limited-edition snare is a true work of art. With only 100 units available, it features a 14x5" sand-cast and machined bell bronze shell with a unique concaved design that transitions from 5 mm at the edges to 3 mm at the center, delivering an unmatched balance of fat, low-end punch and dynamic response across all tunings.

The MFG True-Cast bronze snare is equipped with precision-machined True-Cast machined bronze counter hoops, Mini Turret Lugs, Mini MAG throw-off and True-Pitch tension rods, all made from raw brass that develops a natural patina over time. Additional features include 45-degree bearing edges, 20-strand True-Tone snare wires, and Remo Ambassador single-ply snare heads adorned with DW MFG logos. Each drum is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a rugged, limited-edition DW MFG flight case by Calzone, ensuring protection and exclusivity for gigging musicians and collectors alike. Combining unparalleled craftsmanship and sonic excellence, the DW MFG True-Cast snare drum is the ultimate centerpiece for any drummer's arsenal.
