Striking a perfect combination of elegance and resonance, Noble & Cooley SS Classic snare drum is a tried and true go-to for artists everywhere. As Noble & Cooley’s first product in the professional drum arena, the SS Classic solidified their reputation as the leading manufacturer and original maker of The World’s Best Drums. These snare drums were the first steam-bent, solid shell drums of the modern era. They have been used on countless recordings since their introduction in the early 1980s and continue to be the instruments of choice by professional players today.
Noble & Cooley Solid Shell: 1/4" solid rock maple is hand-picked for grain consistency and run through a steam bending process dating back to the Civil War. Their single ply shells vibrate more freely than the multi-ply shells commonly used, giving their SS classic its warmth and legendary bite.
Noble & Cooley Nodal Point Lug Mounting: By placing the lug post at the nodal point of the shell’s natural wavelength, they ensure that the intrinsic tone-creating vibration is unaffected by the mass of the lug. Instead of all drumhead sound, the shell itself adds to the ultimate tone of the drum.
Noble & Cooley Snare System: Their snare system includes the snares, the throw-off, and the snare beds, and comes with Noble & Cooley patented Cam Action snare wires designed to allow tight tensioning without choking the bottom drumhead. These vibrate beautifully at medium and loose tensions, and can be tuned up or down as needed. Our brass throw-off is smooth and simple, allowing the snare wires to be engaged or disengaged easily.
Noble & Cooley Bearing Edge: The bearing edge is the point of contact between the shell and the drumhead. The accuracy of this bearing edge determines the drums tone and tunability. Their snare edges are lathed to create maximum resonance and projection. True to 1/10,000th of an inch, our artfully customized drums have hand cut bearing edges that are checked twice on a machinist's grade granite flat, ensuring consistent pitch.
