Overview

A handcrafted brass snare drum that delivers robust tone and smooth playability.

The DW Collector's Series polished brass snare delivers a sound as stunning as its appearance. Handcrafted in DW's California custom shop, this limited-edition snare drum provides a bold tone that cuts through any mix. Its hand-polished brass shell resonates powerfully, producing fat lows and crisp highs that are ideal for any genre from rock to jazz. Premium features like the magnetic adjustable grove (MAG) throw-off, True-Pitch tension rods and DW heads by Remo provide nuanced control over your sound.

Hand-Polished Brass Shell Delivers Commanding Tone

The brass shell is hand-rolled and polished to a mirror shine, giving this snare a luxurious vintage vibe. Brass is also ideal for projection, creating a full tone with articulate attack. When you strike this snare, its resonance and sustain are felt as much as heard. The shell's 3-mm thickness and precision craftsmanship also provide sensitivity for ghost notes and other subtle techniques. Overall, this brass shell helps you achieve a sound with depth, dimension and power.

Premium Features Offer Nuanced Control

High-end features like the MAG throw-off, True-Pitch tension rods and DW heads by Remo give you flexibility in shaping your tone. The MAG throw-off enables switching between snare wires with a flick of your drum stick. True-Pitch tension rods keep drum heads evenly tuned for optimal resonance. DW heads are pre-installed for balanced response right out of the case. Together, these premium parts help you dial in the precise snare sound you want.

Golden Hardware Provides Vintage Appeal

While the hand-polished brass shell delivers sonic excellence, gold-plated hardware evokes the glamor of early 20th-century jazz. The snare wires, hoops, lug casings and tension rods feature a warm, gold finish for a sense of vintage grandeur. Against the brass shell, the gold hardware is a visual reminder of the craftsmanship and premium materials in this snare. For discerning drummers, such thoughtful details demonstrate why the Collector's Series is DW's pinnacle of custom drums.
