TAMA STAR Maple 14″ x 6.5″ Snare Drum – Emerald Sea Curly Maple Burst

TAMA’s Star series drums represent the very best in consistent production quality, proven shell design, and fastidious attention to detail, and the Star Maple Snare drum continues that respected tradition. It incorporates the best facets of the Starclassic series to produce a next-level snare that drummers love, with Remo heads, a 2mm core ply that gives it much of the response of a solid shell, eight single-piece lugs that reduce the drum’s weight and improve resonance, triple air holes for increased tonal dryness, and a “linear-drive” strainer with ratcheting tension adjustment. And even with its “solid core ply,” the overall thickness of the TAMA Star Maple Snare’s 5-ply shell is only 5mm, leaving it free to sing out with maple’s characteristically bright, open voice. Star Maple Snare is as visually stunning as it is musically pleasing.
