Yamaha 13 x 6.5 Recording Custom Brass Snare Drum

Main Features

Designed in conjunction with the legendary Steve Gadd, the Yamaha Recording Custom offers a depth and consistency of sound that makes the Recording Custom the unbeatable standard.

The new addition of the metal snare lineup to the Recording Custom series represents the addition of Yamaha's finest snare drums, using the valuable input of legendary Steve Gadd to its maximum. It adds a superb consistency, allowing drummers to fully utilise the sound functionality of the kit.

After repeated evaluations of our design by Steve Gadd, we have created a groundbreaking snare drum. To date, Yamaha's snare drums have traditionally had the metal centre bead on the interior of the drum. However, we have taken the step of fixing the centre bead to the outside of the drum to produces a more open sound than our conventional drums, for crisp, articulate performance.

The heavy-duty Q-type strainer is robust whilst offering solid, stable and smooth operation, along with adjustment and snare replacement.
