Description

Gretsch USA Bell Brass 14″ x 5″ Snare Drum. This 14 x 5-inch USA Bell Brass has the width of a main snare and the punch of a thick metal shell. Its shallower depth keeps the strong brass note more concise while still producing a rounded centre beneath rimshots.

Shell and Sound:

The 3mm bell-brass shell has roundover bearing edges. Gretsch describes this material as combining wood-like warmth with the cut of metal.

Hardware and Response:

Four-millimetre die-cast hoops make the rimshot firm and focused. A 42-strand wire set gives quieter strokes a generous snare response.

In cases where packaging has been opened we may be unable to offer a refund but in some cases will offer a refund that reflects the reduced resale value of the item.
