BRASS series

The BRASS Series snares are particularly recommended for musicians who need optimum sound both on stage and in the studio.
These snare drums are versatile and have a powerful tone but, at the same time, offer high performance in terms of control provided by their die-cast hoops. Acoustic and aesthetic quality are combined in these models, thanks to their clear lacquer finish, which adds an exceptional lustre to their brass shells.

STEEL SNARES

STEEL series

These drums are constructed with a 1 mm hammered-steel shell. Their vintage-style “L-Lugs” guarantee maximum stability even at high tension levels and provide them with extraordinary acoustic performance ranging from low and full-bodied tones to cutting, compressed tones able to reach explosive harmonic peaks. Their excellent hand-hammered construction, along with their bronze-coloured finish give them a distinguished and captivating look. The broad range of sizes available adapts this series to use with any drum set in any application, in any musical context.

SPRUCE SERIES

The wood for this series is the same as for violins: Spruce from Val di Fiemme, naturally seasoned three years long. It produces a clear and rather dry sound, a reduced presence of harmonics and a high tonality prevalence. The response is very definite and open, particularly for models having a 12” diameter.

NEW
From Drum Art comes a special edition of Spruce Series: 14” x 5,5” and 14” x 6,5” snare drum with Wood hoops.
The ideal sound for latin, with a perfect rim.

MUTENIA WALNUT SERIES

Mutenia is a hard and resistant wood. Its 3 years long natural seasoning confers these snare drums a robust sound, very powerful, in which dark tonalities prevail. Also in the 14" x 4" and 4,5" a low frequency halo remains. It supports and gives thickness to the typical acute and dry timbres of these sizes. That is the ideal condition for those who need a funky, still full-bodied sound.

PADOUK SERIES

We have made the type of snare drum able to marry the warmth and full-bodied sound of wood with the sensitivity and entry of metal. All from a single instrument, without having to choose.
Of dense and porous wood, Padouk stands out for its full-bodied sound and sustenance. It has a deep timbre and an exceptional balance of tones, with a slight prevalence of bass.
It is ideal for classical music, which is why it has been chosen by Maestro Gabriele Bianchi and by the percussionists of the La Scala Theatre in Milan. Its robust, powerful sonority is also suitable for rock music, as it recalls the legendary sounds of the 70's. That is also a reason why it has been chosen by many rock drummers.

The Olive series is exceptional. Sounds are balanced, with an optimum response to any level of stress, stick to brush. The entry, volume and sound pressure produced are great. The equilibrium among harmonics is surprising, no matter what kind of tuning or drumhead. Giuseppe Cacciola (Philharmonic Orchestra, La Scala Theatre, Milan) has said:
“It's incredible. With such a jewel I can finally revive the sound of the glorious 1950's snares.
