Yamaha Mike Bordin Signature Series Copper Snare 14" x 6.5"

Heavy! By that I mean HEAVY. Very loud and warm sound that cuts through the heaviest metal, yet can roll with any groove. Excellent condition, some minor scrapes in the paint from usage, but no damage and all parts are original besides the snare wire. Very good snare for the studio and live performance.

14"x 6.5" 2mm thick Copper Shell

Copper snare drums cut thru loud music but have a warmer tone than other metal shells. Copper shells have enhanced low-end frequencies that give them a darker tone that works great in all musical situations. The Mike Bordin snare drum has an extra-thick 2mm shell to stand up to Mike's aggressive playing.

Hand-Hammered on the bottom half

Hand-hammering distresses the metal and gives it even darker tonal characteristics. This drum is hammered on the bottom half for warmth, but the top half is not hammered so that the drum can take the punishment of even the heaviest hitter.

Anton Fig style lugs

The Mike Bordin snare uses the same lugs found on the ever-popular Anton Fig snare. These lugs are borrowed from our line of marching drums for clean looks and durability.

Black coated rims and unique finish

The 2.3mm thick triple flange Dyna Hoops are strong, giving you precise tuning yet they allow the drum to open up. The rims on the SD6465MB are black coated, and the shell is "heat finished" to give it a beautiful dark finish.
