Solid Brass Snare with 4.0mm Die-cast Hoops
For an American-made brass snare with unrestrained sensitivity and endless versatility, be sure to check out the Gretsch USA Chrome over Brass snare drum from Sweetwater. Its 1.2mm chrome-plated brass shell, rich in body and lightning-fast in its response, is crowned with 45° bearing edges to optimize head and shell response. Topping it all off is a set of 8-lug, 4.0mm die-cast hoops capable of delivering commanding cross-sticks to chunky rimshots. You also get the best of Gretsch's US-made hardware innovations, including a Lightning throw off mechanism and onboard snap-in drum key holder. And for great tone right out of the box, a 42-strand snare wire and Gretsch-branded Remo Permatone heads are included.
