The Store / Exotic Wood Custom Snare Drums
The Vented Zebra Piccolo
$695.00
This 4x14 custom handcrafted snare drum is built from 100% Zebrawood. I wanted a very dry snap/crack with this drum and decided to add vents to achieve that. I didn’t want to make the vents large and showy, so I created 20 small vents that are aligned with the tension rods to be more inconspicuous. In addition to the main 1/2 inch vent, this drum has an additional 3.44” worth of vents. The shell is 0.65” thick with 45 degree offset bearing edges. I topped it off with a crystal clear, glossy, glassy, pricey, pretty, durable polyester clear coat. This custom snare drum has black nickel triple flanged hoops, lugs and tension rods, a Puresound 24 strand snare wire, a DFD black nickel throw off and butt plate, and Remo heads. Enjoy the pop and crack of this drum!
This one sold about 14 hours after going live on the website, but I’m glad to build one that is similar or customize it to your liking. Build time is about 3 weeks.
