TAMA 50th Anniversary Limited Mastercraft Artwood 9mm 6ply Birch Shell 14 x 5-Inch Snare Drum

The TAMA Mastercraft Artwood Snare Drum was originally introduced in the year 1980. It became popular soon after for not just its sonic capabilities, but also for its stunning look.

This design features a single on and off lever with dual guide rollers. This helps in easy adjustment. Some notable hardware features include the 10 original lug design, die-cast hoops, and an internal tone control. This drum delivers the classic deep punch and the 14 by 5-inch dimensions allows it to deliver a swift attack topped with a crisp and sensitive response.
