A cast aluminum snare with warm tone and sharp, cutting attack.
The Noble & Cooley Alloy Classic snare drum with chrome hardware carries the weight of a name that’s been shaping drums since 1854. Its cast aluminum shell is poured, not rolled, leaving a porous surface that gives the tone more density and complexity than standard metal snares. A raw clear coat shows the natural character of the shell, while a 45-degree bearing edge keeps each stroke crisp and articulate. Triple-flange hoops lock in rimshots with clarity, and chrome-over-brass hardware adds both shine and strength. Offered in 4-3/4" and 6" depths, it lets drummers choose between tighter projection or deeper body—always true to the craftsmanship that makes Noble & Cooley one of America’s most enduring builders.
160 Years of Noble & Cooley Crafstmanship
This Alloy Classic opens up in different ways depending on how you tune it. Crank it high and you get the sharp crack metal snares are known for; let it breathe lower and warmth comes forward, closer to the depth of wood. Triple-flange hoops keep the voice clean and controlled, letting rimshots pop without stray overtones. Handcrafted in New England by a family company still operating in the same town where it began, it reflects more than 160 years of innovation and tradition. It isn’t just another snare—it’s part of a legacy that’s shaped generations of drummers.
