The Store / Metal Custom Snare Drums

The Silver Graphite Cast Aluminum Snare
$2,175.00
This 5.5x14” custom handcrafted snare drum is built from 3mm cast aluminum. Most lower cost aluminum drums are rolled and connected with a seam, or are spun metal. This one is neither…It’s a cast done in a foundry, giving it a pure bell-like tone. It has a custom Silver Graphite powdercoat finish which is incredibly durable (much more durable than bare metal). It’s an insanely versatile drum that can sound fat or crisp and incredibly dry, depending on tuning and head choice.
