Experience the Unique Sound of the Sonor 12x5" Signature Snare Drum by Gavin Harrison Introducing the Sonor 12x5" Signature Snare Drum, a remarkable instrument that embodies the artistry and innovation of renowned drummer Gavin Harrison. This exceptional snare, known as the Gavin Harrison Protean (SSD-1205-GHPRM), is the fruit of a meticulous 14-month collaboration between Harrison and Sonor, resulting in a drum that is not only visually stunning but also delivers unparalleled sound quality. Crafted from 6-ply birch, this snare is designed with a hybrid bearing edge that enhances its tonal capabilities. The vintage-style rounded edge at the top increases contact with the drumhead, producing a warm and resonant sound, while the sharp 45-degree edge on the snare side ensures maximum sensitivity and articulation.The innovative construction doesn’t stop there; the drum features a hybrid hoop design. The batter side is equipped with an S-Hoop, which contributes to the drum's overall projection, while the modified triple-flange hoop on the snare side works seamlessly with Sonor's versatile Dual Glide Strainer. To elevate your drumming experience, Gavin has also created custom snare wires, tuning keys, and dampening rings—all included with the Protean Signature Snare. The result is an incredibly crisp, responsive, and versatile birch snare drum that stands out in any musical setting.For those who choose the Premium Edition, you will receive a specially designed Protean case manufactured by Hardcase UK. This protective case not only safeguards your snare but also includes the unique “EQ†and “Spacer†snare wires, meticulously stored in a wooden box to keep them separate from the drum itself.6-ply birch construction for enhanced resonanceHybrid bearing edge design for improved contact and sensitivityCustom snare wires and dampening rings designed by Gavin HarrisonIncludes a premium Protean case for safe transportPerfect for drummers seeking versatility and crisp soundAt the Drum Center of Portsmouth, we are passionate about Sonor products.
