The Lemon Yellow Curly Birdseye Maple Handcrafted Custom Snare Drum

$825.00

This 6.25x14” custom handcrafted snare drum is built from 100% Curly Birdseye maple staves. Birdseye Maple is a medium hardness wood that is very versatile. The wood has some beautiful chatoyance. I stained the shell lemon yellow and then I topped it off with a crystal clear, glossy, glassy, pricey, pretty, durable polyester clear coat.

This handcrafted custom snare drum has

  • Black nickel triple-flanged hoops

  • Black nickel dual point lugs and tension rods

  • Brass Puresound 24 strand snare wires

  • A black Trick Drums throw off and butt plate

  • Remo heads.

***this particular drum is sold, but I can recreate it for you or customize it to your liking. Turnaround time is 4-6 weeks
