Multi-Ply Shell Provides Versatile Tone

The 7-ply maple and ash shell provides an array of tones from warm and punchy to sharp and articulate. At 13" in diameter, this versatile snare projects clearly while retaining a musical note. Die-cast hoops focus the sound for crisp articulation and sensitivity. With medium tension, the maple ash snare produces a balanced tone suitable for most musical styles. Tightening the heads results in an articulate pop for cutting through loud mixes, while loosening creates a fat, vintage thud.

Fully Adjustable Throw-Off

The maple ash snare drum features a fully adjustable throw-off and butt plate to easily change between a wide range of snare tensions. Engaging the throw-off results in a crisp, sensitive snare response for articulating ghost notes and delicate passages. Releasing the snares produces a thunderous, echoing tone. Drummers can adjust the throw-off and butt plate between songs for complete tonal control based on musical context.

Remo is a leader in drum head design, using high-quality materials and construction for dependable tone and durability. The coated snare-side head provides extra warmth and sensitivity, while the clear batter head produces a wide range of articulate tones. These high-performance heads are designed to work in tandem with the maple ash snare drum for musical, impactful results.
