For a lively snare with incredible clarity, you can't go wrong with the TAMA S.L.P. G-Hickory snare drum. It's got a meaty attack with exceptional snap, and it's very sensitive, too! Ghost notes come alive, and thanks to its 2.3mm Sound Arc Hoops, you'll notice greater precision and control while enhancing the hickory's natural tone. This 6.5-inch x 14-inch limited-edition hickory snare has an 11mm, 12-ply shell that gives the S.L.P. G-Hickory a fast response that's perfect for funk, pop, punk, gospel, and hip-hop styles, but is deep enough to hold its own in rock and country settings as well. Tuned down, the S.L.P. G-Hickory snare drum barks with the big dogs. Tune it up, and it cracks like lightning to cut through any mix. The outer ply is premium elm for a timeless, classic look. With its formidable volume and bright, powerful sound, the TAMA S.L.P. G-Hickory snare drum delivers premium performance at an affordable price.
