Description
For aggressive rock to delicate balladeering, the 14″ TAMA Soundworks Steel snare drum covers a vast range of needs. Its carefully engineered, center-beaded shell neutralizes the honky overtones that plague so many steel snares in this price range. But that’s not to say the Soundworks Steel lacks attitude — crank it up for a satisfying bark, or detune for a fat pocket. This snare has the projection needed for live sets yet maintains a dry, focused attack that makes it exceptional for studio sessions. The TAMA Soundworks Steel snare comes stock with an Evans G1 batter head and a set of TAMA Sound Arc hoops, which make it fast and easy to dial in snare sounds straight away.
1.2mm steel sheel
Steel’s power and sensitivity make it a natural choice for the live environment. The TAMA Soundworks Steel snare boasts a cutting crack for unplugged applications and a satisfying body under close mics in the studio.
Sound Arc steel hoops
TAMA’s Sound Arc flanged hoops are responsible for the classic open tone of the Soundworks Steel snare. The edges of these 2.3mm hoops are bent inward to allow the natural tone of the steel shell to shine.
Evans G1 batter head
Your TAMA Soundworks Steel snare is ready to rock out of the box, thanks to an included Evans G1 coated batter head. This familiar-sounding head sports a 10mm film with a warm, controlled attack and great stick/brush response. This is just another reason why Sweetwater is proud to stand behind the Soundworks series.
