Description

Tama 14″ x 5.5″ Starclassic Performer Snare Drum – Piano Black. Starclassic Performer blends maple warmth with birch clarity, giving a punchy note that stays easy to place in a live or recorded mix. With a 14-inch batter head, this snare has the breadth of a main drum; its 5.5-inch shell keeps the attack quick and responsive.

Shell and Sound:

The 6mm shell uses two inner maple plies and four birch plies outside, so the low mids have warmth while the initial hit remains focused. This drum is finished in Piano Black.

Hardware and Response:

Zinc die-cast hoops focus the rimshot into a sharp, solid crack and rein in some of the head ring. The controlled ring leaves room for ghost notes without losing the impact of rimshots.
