Gretsch Hammered Black Steel 14 X 6.5" Snare Drum with Di-Cast Hoops S1-6514-BSH

We've taken a 1.2mm steel shell and added large hammering to it to focus the tone and give a slightly dryer overall attack. This not only adds to the overall sound but also gives these drums a stunning visual appeal, making them an integral additional to any setup.

A large-bore hammering pattern gives this Gretsch Full Range snare a dramatic look - one that you'll be proud to make the centerpiece of your stage kit. The 1.2mm steel shell exhibits a focused, dry, complex tone that takes different tuning ranges like a champ. A pair of die-cast metal hoops helps to further dial back the shell's overtones, delivering sharp and cutting rimshots and cross-sticks that carry straight to the back row. The Gretsch Full Range hammered steel snare drum is handsome, versatile, and super dynamic, which also makes it a solid option for studio work.
