The SSS1465 Snare Drum from the Yamaha Stage Custom beginner series has a steel shell in standard size with 14 inch diameter and 6.5 inch depth. The heads come from Remo and are tuned with the help of flanged steel hoops. The quality of workmanship is typical of Yamaha at the highest level, so the Stage Custom Snare Drum offers a very good price-performance ratio.
Steel shell in standard size
The shell has a wall thickness of 1 mm and comes in the standard dimensions 14 inch diameter and 6.5 inch depth. A bead running centrally around the shell gives the thin shell the necessary stability to enable high tunings with a lot of tension on the head.
Features of the Stage Custom Snare Drum
The other features of the Stage Custom Snare Drum are also worth seeing and hearing. The heads are from the Remo UT Ambassador series and support the open, powerful sound character, just like the 1.5 mm thick steel hoops. Unusual in this price range: A snare bed of 1.8 mm depth ensures a sensitive, direct response of the snare wires, which consists of 20 carbon strands. For precise tuning, the snare drum has 10 tuning screws on each side.
