About this listing
Light, bright, and crisp—yet often lacking in power. The STAR Reserve Hand Hammered Aluminum snare drum was conceived to shatter this common perception of aluminum snares.Its thick, 3mm-molded shell delivers a deep, resonant tone with a solid core, while retaining the refreshing feel and rapid attack characteristic of aluminum. The hammering—meticulously applied by hand by skilled Japanese metal artisans—utilizes hammers of varying sizes to create slightly higher rigidity near the edges compared to the center, resulting in a profound, voluminous resonance.It produces pleasing high-frequency tones without requiring high-pitch tuning, yet achieves a mellow, never-muddy sound at lower pitches. This drum enables a wide range of expression, spanning from the brilliant, dazzling resonance typical of metal shells to a sophisticated, composed tone.(Specifications)Size: 14” x 6.5”Shell: 3mm Hand Hammered Aluminum shellLugs: MSL90SCTension Bolts: MS666SHPHoops: 2.3mm Brass Sound Arc Hoop (8-hole)MSB14-8D (Batter side) / MSB14S-8D (Resonant side)Heads: REMO Coated Ambassador (Batter side)REMO Snare-Side (Resonant side)Strainer/Butt: MLS50A / MLS50BSnare Wires: MS20RL14CHigh-carbon steel / 20 strands / Inner-contact typeIncluded Accessories: Tuning key, soft case
