DW Collector’s Series Maple Snare Drum – 6.5" x 14" in Satin Natural Oil

Unfiltered depth meets legendary engineering. Crafted from select North American Hard Rock Maple, this 6.5" x 14" DW Collector’s Series snare serves up the classic, full-bodied warmth that set the industry standard for modern drum tone. By finishing the shell in a hand-rubbed Satin Natural Oil rather than heavy lacquer, the wood breathes freely—yielding maximum shell resonance, enhanced sustain, and an organic, understated aesthetic that looks stunning under any lighting.

The 6.5-inch depth gives you incredible versatility: tune it low for a fat, earthy thud with deep low-end punch, or crank it up for a sharp, articulate crack that pierces through dense mixes without losing its fundamental tone.

• 100% Hard Rock Maple Shell: Delivers a balanced sonic spectrum with rich low-mids, smooth highs, and incredible dynamic response across all volume levels.

• Satin Natural Oil Finish: A micro-thin finish that protects the wood while leaving shell vibration completely uninhibited for open, natural tone.

• MAG Throw-Off System: Features a magnetic drop-style lever that locks in place without gear slip, disengaging smoothly and quietly during performances.

• True-Pitch® 50 Threaded Rods: Ultra-fine 50-thread-per-inch tension rods offer micro-tuning precision, keeping your drum in key through aggressive rimshots and long sets.

• 3.0mm True-Hoops: Heavy-duty triple-flanged hoops engineered for each drum size to deliver powerful, consistent rimshots while preserving natural shell open-ness.

• Ideal as an all-around studio centerpiece or a reliable workhorse on the road, this DW Collector's Maple snare offers unmatched projection, articulate sensitivity, and timeless tone.
