This 7×14” custom handcrafted snare drum is built from 100% solid Curly Purpleheart wood staves. Famed New Orleans dummer Terrence Houston mentioned that his car was stolen and his purpleheart ply shell snare had disappeared with the car. Seven Six Drum Co stepped up and volunteered to build Terrence a replacement at no charge..
Purpleheart is an exotic hardwood that has a gorgeous tone with sensitivity and attack.
As for the finish, I applied 6 coats of hand-rubbed high build finishing oil in semi-gloss. This drum has:
roundover to 45 degree bearing edges.
a 0.5” thick stave shell
chrome lugs
chrome diecast hoops and tension rods
25 strand snare wires
Chrome DW Mag throw off and 5-position butt plate
Matching air vent grommet
Evans heads.
This drum has been sold, but I can create another for you just like it or customize it to your liking
