Tama 14x6.5 Star Reserve Stave Ash Snare Drum - Oiled Amber Ash

The Tama 14x6.5 Star Reserve Stave Ash Snare Drum (TVA1465SOAA) features a 10mm, 20-piece stave ash shell with 45 degree bearing edges, 10 Tama lugs (MSL90SC), 2.3mm Sound Arc Hoops, Linear-Drive throw-off and butt plate (MLS50A / MLS50B), 20-strand Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon snare wires, Remo Ambassador drumheads with Tama logo, Oiled Amber Ash finish, chrome hardware, and Tama Star Reserve badge.

This 14x6.5 Stave Ash shell is the newest edition to the Tama Star Reserve series. Characterized by its brightness and sensitivity, Ash wood has a wide tonal range. Similar to a conga drum, 20 pieces of 10mm thick Ash wood staves are used to form this unique shell, delivering a quicker response and deeper tone than that of a ply or solid shell drum. Using Tama's Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon Snare Wires, Tama was able to achieve an extremely sensitive, bright, and crisp sound. These characteristics allow the player to freely express themselves. Together, the high-quality sound and intricate Ash wood grain creates an incomparable experience that will resonate with players and audiences alike.
