Drummers have been rocking out with DW for decades with no shortage of musical versatility, finding homes among the kits of Dave Grohl, Tommy Clufetos, Roger Taylor, Nick Mason, and Max Weinberg, just to name a few. Consistent, unparalleled quality and design have made DW solid standby, and Sweetwater’s drumming experts agree this Collector’s Series Bronze Snare is no exception. This versatile snare is constructed with a heavy-gauge 3mm rolled bronze shell, delivering a dark, weighty sound, blending immense projection with tight, dynamic responsiveness. A 5-position butt plate, True Pitch 50mm tension rods, and MAG throw-off system ensure precise tuning and intonation, quick adjustments, and unintrusive design for a versatile snare that won’t pull its punches. The 3.0mm steel True Hoops add a great sonic flourish, adorned with a fully-rounded edge and designed to split the difference between die-cast and triple-flanged hoops, pairing with bronze shell for a unique output.
