Tama Starclassic Performer 14x6.5 Snare Drum with Hybrid Maple and Birch Shell

The Tama Starclassic Performer Snare Drum delivers professional-grade tone and versatility through its innovative hybrid shell construction. Built with six plies—four layers of birch combined with two inner plies of maple—this 14x6.5 snare balances the bright, articulate projection of birch with the warm resonance of maple. The result is a clean, punchy tone with excellent clarity and sustain, ideal for studio recording and live performance across multiple musical genres.

Engineered for precision and durability, this snare features cast hoops with 10 lugs that focus and amplify the drum's natural voice. Evans drumheads provide consistent response and tuning stability, while the adjustable MCS70 pickup system allows fine-tuned control over snare sensitivity. The high-gloss lacquer finish in Caramel Aurora delivers a striking visual presentation that complements any drum kit setup.
