Gretsch snare drum for a wide range of playing situations
The Gretsch Hammered Black Steel Snaredrum comes from the professional Full Range series and is built for many different musical situations. This snare drum has a 14 x 5 size, giving you a versatile format for rehearsal, studio and stage use.
The hammered black steel shell is 1.2 mm thick and finished in Black Nickel. The larger hammering gives the tone more focus and makes the attack slightly drier, giving this steel snare a clear and tight character.
Construction of the Hammered Black Steel snare
The 45° bearing edge contributes to a direct head response. Die cast hoops give the Gretsch snare drum a solid, consistent build, while the Remo heads match the professional character of this version.
If you are looking for a steel snare drum with a focused tone and a slightly drier attack, this Gretsch fits well in many drum kits and playing styles. At our music store in Roosendaal, you can also count on advice from staff who are players themselves.
