The Matte Padauk Custom Snare Drum

$795.00

This 7x14” custom handcrafted snare drum is built from Central American Padauk. Padauk has a hardness similar to hard maple, but has a much more complex grain structure and appearance. The red color you see here is not a stain, it’s the actual color of the wood. My client requested a super matte finish, so I used 2 coats of ultra durable, waterproof cutting board wax as a clear coat. This custom snare drum snaps, crackles, and pops, and is a gorgeous addition to any drum kit. This drum has:

  • offset roundover/30 degree bearing edges.

  • a 0.66” thick stave shell

  • black lugs that were handmade for my by Champagne Drums in Canada

  • black nickel triple flanged hoops and tension rods

  • Puresound Custom Pro 24 strand snare wires

  • Black Nickel throw off and butt plate by Inde Drums

  • Remo heads.

***This drum was custom built for a client and is therefore sold, but I can build another just like it or adjust specs to your choosing. Turnaround time is only 4-6 weeks
