Handcrafted in DW’s California custom shop, this limited-edition snare drum provides a bold tone that cuts through any mix. Its hand-polished brass shell resonates powerfully, producing fat lows and crisp highs that are ideal for any genre from rock to jazz. Premium features like the magnetic adjustable grove (MAG) throw-off, True-Pitch tension rods and DW heads by Remo provide nuanced control over your sound.
The brass shell is hand-rolled and polished to a mirror shine, giving this snare a luxurious vintage vibe. Brass is also ideal for projection, creating a full tone with articulate attack. When you strike this snare, its resonance and sustain are felt as much as heard. The shell’s 3-mm thickness and precision craftsmanship also provide sensitivity for ghost notes and other subtle techniques. Overall, this brass shell helps you achieve a sound with depth, dimension and power.
High-end features like the MAG throw-off, True-Pitch tension rods and DW heads by Remo give you flexibility in shaping your tone. The MAG throw-off enables switching between snare wires with a flick of your drum stick. True-Pitch tension rods keep drum heads evenly tuned for optimal resonance. DW heads are pre-installed for balanced response right out of the case. Together, these premium parts help you dial in the precise snare sound you want.
While the hand-polished brass shell delivers sonic excellence, gold-plated hardware evokes the glamor of early 20th-century jazz. The snare wires, hoops, lug casings and tension rods feature a warm, gold finish for a sense of vintage grandeur. Against the brass shell, the gold hardware is a visual reminder of the craftsmanship and premium materials in this snare. For discerning drummers, such thoughtful details demonstrate why the Collector’s Series is DW’s pinnacle of custom drums.
