Yamaha Recording Custom Aluminum Snare Drum - 6.5 x 14-inch - Brushed Reviews
Yamaha's Recording Custom snare drums have been at the heart of countless records since the late '70s. And now, thanks to a partnership with session icon Steve Gadd (Paul Simon, Steely Dan), these snares are better than ever. Each Recording Custom represents a different generation of some of the most celebrated metal snares in the industry. Choose from the dynamic woodiness of aluminum, the cutting crack of steel, or the dark intensity of brass (each sold separately). Shells are expertly formed to just 1.2mm thick with an external center bead — a first in Yamaha's history — and treated to a sumptuous brushed finish with updated lugs and an offset badge.

Yamaha Recording Custom Aluminum 6.5x14!
I've been playing music (mainly drums) for 30+years, and have been blessed to play some of the more sought after snares known. This snare is by far my favorite! I simply can't say enough about this drum. It fits perfectly with 90's recording custom kit! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Yamaha!
