The Tama 6.5" x 14" Star Walnut Snare Drum naturally creates thick, punchy sounds that are fantastic for deep backbeats and music that likes to dig in on the low end of the frequency spectrum. The common dimensions on this drum make a very powerful sound with a wide tuning range.
This drum has rounder bearing edges than Tama's traditional design, putting more contact between the head and the shell to pre-dampen those unwanted, high overtones that can come out with thin bearing edges.
Star Walnut drums were designed with a minimal amount of hardware-on-shell contact in mind. This snare features eight clean one-piece bridge lugs that keep the shell nice and open.
The snare bed on the Star Walnut is wider than on other Tama drums with a flat bottom, increasing the sensitivity of the snare wires for clean, clear ghost notes and little bits of tasty fuzz.
The MLS50A Linear-Drive strainer engages without a sound no matter how fast you flip it. The ratchet tension adjustment system pulls the snare wires up 0.083mm at a time if you want to make any micro-adjustments.
Three air holes around the shell give the drum a brighter, drier tone than they would without. Included Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon Snappy Snares are crisp and sensitive.
