Description

Combining some of the most desirable qualities of the commonly used tone woods, cherry accentuates projection while maintaining an abundantly warm and round timbre.
Applying this material to an orchestral snare drum design featuring a hybrid bearing edge concept provides an instrument capable of delivering unique tonal warmth and dynamic sensitivity.

Features

The smooth and silent OP-01 strainer is a simple and classic functional design featuring a laser-engraved knurled vertical fine tuner adjustment.
The integrated bridge sets the optimal angle allowing the snare cables to establish a true and consistent point of contact with the resonate side head. The result is extreme responsiveness at all dynamic levels and playing areas of the drum.
Chrome plated « I » lug lends classic and elegant look as well as ensuring maximum shell resonance
The revolutionary « Rigid-Cast » claw hook design utilizes an oblong receiver hole enclosed in a diecast housing which prevents cracking, ensures proper tuning alignment, and allows flexible tolerance for both synthetic and natural heads.
Frequency Modifier (FM) accessories allow performers to quickly modify the snare drum’s tone. Will not muffle desirable frequencies or stifle the drum’s response, but rather allows the player to enhance and expand the pallet of sounds available.
