DW 14x5.5 Collector's Series Aluminum 3mm Snare Drum

The DW 14x5.5 Collector's Series Aluminum 3mm Snare Drum (DRVA5514SVC) features a heavy-gauge 3mm aluminum shell with reinforcement rings, rolled 45 degree bearing edges, 10 double-ended Turret lugs, True-Pitch 50 tension rods, 3.0mm True-Hoops, MAG throw-off, 5P butt plate, 20-strand True-Tone snare wires, DW Coated White Snare Batter drumhead made by Remo, DW Clear Snare Bottom drumhead made by Remo, unique wrinkle coating, brushed clear coat finish, chrome hardware, and DW Collector's Series badge.

DW Aluminum shells offer versatile, workhorse-style snare performance with round punchy attack, dry and controlled resonance, and musical overtones. Cast from heavy-gauge aluminum with an integrated reinforcement hoop, this is not the light weight aluminum snare from the past. This bright, yet bottom heavy metal drum lacks a lot of the ping and metallic quality associated with brass and steel drums. Finished in a unique wrinkle coating.
