S.L.P. Sonic Stainless Steel Snare Drum

Designed from the bottom up as part of the TAMA Sound Lab Project, the 14" TAMA S.L.P. Sonic Stainless Steel snare drum is a powerhouse metal instrument with a hefty, robust sound. Built with a solid 1.2 mm pure stainless steel shell at a resonant 6.5" depth, this drum is perfect for players who want to lay down a cutting backbeat at any tuning.

When developing this model, TAMA's philosophy was that a steel snare shouldn't have to be tuned extra high to produce that distinctive metal attack. High-pitched tunings are great for piercing through thick heavy metal riffs, but players who prefer a low or mid-level tension, with the beefy resonance that comes with it, should be able to enjoy the tonal clarity and attack of a steel snare as well. TAMA accomplished this goal by developing a new 3.0 mm triple-flange Mighty Hoop, designed to pair with the stainless steel shell and two-point tube lugs to guarantee an aggressive, pure attack with every strike. Add the 30-count steel coil snare wires and heads crafted by EVANS, and this drum offers a bright, bold snare sound for any genre.
