DW Design Series Snare Drum 14 x 6 in. Blue Granite Finish Ply

The Design Series 14x6" snare drum delivers a resonant, full tone suited for any musical style. With 10 plies of premium North American maple and True-Pitch tuning, this snare provides warm, balanced acoustics. The mini-turret lugs allow easy head changes while keeping the drum lightweight and the MAG throw-off gives you crisp snare articulation with the flick of a lever. Premium Maple Shell Resonates You'll appreciate the depth and warmth of this snare's 10-ply North American maple shell. Maple is a dense, durable wood that also produces a wide range of tones. The shell's thickness gives punchy attack while sustaining notes. Play everything from rock to jazz to orchestral—this maple shell handles it all. True-Pitch Tuning Keeps You in Tune The True-Pitch tuning system makes it easy to tune and keep your snare in tune. The low-mass lugs evenly distribute tension around the drumhead for balanced, resonant acoustics in any playing situation. Once tuned, the True-Pitch system stabilizes the drum's pitch so you stay in tune through an entire performance. Quick Changes With the MAG Throw-Off The MAG throw-off lets you make adjustments to snare tension during playing with the flick of a lever. Engage or release the snares smoothly and silently for dynamic control over snare articulation. The MAG throw-off's sturdy construction also prevents the snare strainer from slipping out of place, keeping your snare settings consistent.
