TAMA S.L.P. Black Brass Snare Drum 14 x 6.5 in.

If you're a drummer who enjoys fat, powerful beats and needs a strong attack to ensure your craft is heard, the TAMA S.L.P. Black Brass snare drum is the snare for you. With a 1.5 mm shell hewn from robust brass, this drum delivers a piercing attack with warm resonance.

A big-sounding snare needs hardware that can stand up to it and that's exactly what the Black Brass snare was given with the Steel Mighty Hoops. Triple-flanged and 2.3 mm thick, these hoops will provide a "wetter" sound than die-cast zinc and will provide an articulate rimshot or accent, when needed. The massive 42-strand Starclassic Carbon Steel Snappy Snares will deliver maximum responsiveness and also emphasize attack, as needed.

Add a black nickel finish and black hardware to the mix and you've got a big, bad, intimidating brass snare. Good thing it's on your side.
