Overview

The signature snare drum of Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain.

The Nicko McBrain Talisman Snare Drum is the signature snare for the Iron Maiden drummer. Nicko himself was deeply involved in the design and development of this snare and his passion for engineering excellence playing a significant role in bringing Talisman to life. Handcrafted in the UK, Talisman is seamlessly spun from British Steel. The characteristic ridges undulating across the outer surface of the 14" x 6.5" shell reveal the artisanal craft in a signature finish, unique to every single drum. Loud, vibrant and full of tone, the seamless steel shell really sings.

Designed by one of the world’s greatest metal drummers, Talisman is not a snare drum to be ignored. As Nicko says, “I’ve waited a lifetime to play the Talisman snare drum, but you can get your hands on one of these beauties right away!”.
