Dennis Chambers' updated signature snare drum incorporates unique features from his previous models in an instrument that delivers unparalleled versatility, sensitivity, and sonic possibilities. Not merely just another drum bearing his name, this new snare drum is tonally versatile enough to deliver a wide variety of sounds in any performance space. To be truly great, one must evolve. Drumming legend Dennis Chambers took this to heart when considering the transformation of his signature snare drum sound. Using the multi-lug design of his previous model, it employs ten tuning points on the batter head and eight on the bottom for top-end tonal focus. Returning to the 4-ply maple with 4-ply Reinforcement Rings shell of his original signature model, it features a solid, searing, and articulate sound that fits well in any playing field. The real difference comes with its SR300 Philharmonic Strainer, which features three individually tunable six-strand snappy wire snares. Each can be engaged or disengaged to sculpt the sound of the drum further. Pearl's reliably durable Mastercast Die-Cast Hoops also add weight for increased projection.
