Description

Yamaha Recording Custom 14″ x 5.5″ Brass Snare Drum. With a 14-inch head and responsive 5.5-inch depth, this Recording Custom can switch between a big backbeat and detailed ghost notes. The brass tone has a rounded metal centre with enough edge for a clean recording.

Shell and Sound:

An outward centre bead opens the response of its 1.2mm brass shell. Yamaha developed the metal Recording Custom snares with Steve Gadd’s feedback.

Hardware and Response:

The fitted 20-strand wires give a fuller buzz; a bundled Steve Gadd ten-strand set leaves more shell tone exposed. A Q-type strainer and 2.3mm Dyna Hoops keep both setups controlled.
