The Premier Beatmaker 13" x 5.5" Hammered Brass Snare Drum, Black Chrome is the perfect blend of style and sound. Sporting a black chrome, hammered finish, this visually striking snare is comprised of only the finest components, including 8 vintage-inspired lugs, as well as a Dunnett smooth action snare strainer that grants quick tonal adjustments mid-song. Incredibly versatile, the 2.3mm triple-flange steel hoops offers extraordinary resonance with the possibility of achieving powerful rimshot sounds when desired.
Capable of achieving exceptional attack and projection within a wide tuning range, the Beatmaker 13" x 5.5" Hammered Brass Snare Drum proves useful for a broad range of musical styles. This complements the black chrome, hammered brass shell finish which delivers a bright tone with great presence thanks to the upper mid-range boost. Like all snares in the Beatmaker series, the 13" x 5.5" Hammered Brass Snare Drum comes complete with Remo UT Coated Ambassador heads.
