Beautiful All-brass Snare Delivers Amazing Tone
When Pork Pie says its snare drum is made of brass, the company isn't kidding! This USA Custom Patina Brass snare drum takes the concept of a brass snare to a higher level. The shell is 1mm thick with a stunning oxidized patina that makes each one that arrives at Sweetwater unique. It's complemented with a set of chrome-plated brass tube lugs. Triple-flanged 2.3mm hoops provide stable tuning and give the Custom Patina Brass snare an expressive range of rim accents. The sound of the drum itself is stunning, with a warmth that comes out boldly when you tune down. Tune it up, and you get a chiming crack, courtesy of a set of brass snares. All told, the Pork Pie USA Custom Patina Brass snare is a perfect way to add a ton of character to your drum set.
