Warm. Vintage. Versatile. Classic Maple Character in Every Hit.

The Tama S.L.P. Classic Maple Snare Drum (LMP1455-SMP) delivers timeless warmth and rich resonance, making it a go-to choice for drummers seeking a balanced, musical voice. Crafted from a 7-ply, 6mm maple shell, this 14x5.5" snare produces round, open tones with smooth highs, present mids, and a warm low-end—perfect for styles like jazz, blues, pop, and indie rock.
