Tama snare drum with a dry, crispy sound
If you are looking for a snare drum with direct attack and short decay, the Tama LAL1455 is a strong match. This 14 x 5.5 snare from the S.L.P. Classic Dry Aluminium series combines a 1.2 mm seamless aluminium shell with a centre bead, matching the vintage look and sound this model is based on.
The 8-lug Steel Mighty Hoops in 2.3 mm steel add to a crispy snare sound with a dry, controlled decay. That makes this Tama snare drum appealing to drummers who want a clear snare hit without long ring.
Sensitive response from the updated snare wire
Under the resonant head you get the MS20RL14C super sensitive hi-carbon snare wire. New materials are used for this snare wire, and the plate shape and winding pattern of the wires have also been changed so the snare set sits closer to the bottom head.
In practice, this gives you a crispier sound and greater sensitivity in the response. Combined with the MCS70A strainer and MCHL5S lugs, this Tama snare drum reacts quickly and accurately to your playing. At Magna Music, you can also get personal advice from drummers and musicians if you want to expand your drum kit with a focused choice.
