Radio King Snare Drum

Slingerland Radio King Snare Drum
Shell
Like the original, the shell used to construct these snares is a single piece of steam-bent maple with reinforcement hoops on both top and bottom. This combination gives a deep, rich tone frequently called the "fat sound." Other features include a heavy throw-off, 13" 16-strand snares, coated white batter heads, and clear snare heads.Hoops
The Radio King Original model uses an 8-lug, chrome-plated brass hoop engraved with the original Slingerland Radio King logo. The Super Radio King model is a recent addition to the line and uses a 10-lug die-cast hoop configuration with the standard solid maple shell. The model should be specified at the time of order.Finishes
