Tune it up and the steel shell gives a bright tone with a tight crispness, for a backbeat and accents that cut clearly through the band.

Bring the tuning down and the 14"x6.5" shell opens up into a smooth resonance, so the same snare covers crisp, high tunings and fuller, deeper sounds.
The matte black steel shell is formed with a ridge around its centre as reinforcement for a strong shell, and giving the drum its classic steel-snare look.

The lugs, hoops and strainer are all colour-matched in matte black, so the whole drum has a clean, stealthy look on stage.
Twenty-strand regular carbon steel snare wires give a full snare response, and 8-hole triple flanged hoops on MSL60 lugs make tuning simple. The MUS65 strainer lets you set wire tension and switch the snares off.
The 14"x6.5" snare drum with heads and snare wires fitted. A snare stand and sticks are sold separately.
Yes. It is a standard 14-inch snare, so it fits any snare stand that takes a 14" drum.

Tama forms a ridge around the centre of the steel shell as reinforcement.
