Craviotto 7x14" AK Masters Bronze Snare Drum

Here's a stunning near-mint condition Craviotto/AK 2016 Masters Bronze 7x14 snare drum; one of the few in the lot produced with a 3-point strainer instead of the standard Trick! Beautiful drum, and bronze is a wonderful metal for snares. Sonically it sits between brass and the softer copper. Adrian Kirchler makes each shell by hand so of course, each drum is a magnificent piece. The 7" depth gives you tremendous body, yet the drum is sensitive anywhere on the head at any volume, and the tuning range is very wide. This drum comes from the collection of a trusty friend and has been extremely well kept for the last decade.

ORIGINAL PROMO FOR THESE DRUMS: New for 2016 from Johnny Craviotto and Adrian Kirchler, the Craviotto/AK Masters Bronze series snare drums. These wonderful drums have a bronze shell built by the metal shell master himself, Adrian Kirchler. Bronze is a wonderful metal for snare drums. It sits between the sound of brass (which is warm, but brighter) and copper (which is extremely warm). This fabulous drum will be available in either 5.25x14 or 7x14. This is a very limited run with only 25 drums being made in the 5.25x14 size and only 75 drums being made in the 7x14 size. And, for strainers you can choose the Trick GS007 or a vintage style 3 point strainer.
