The Flame Birch Orange and Aqua
This is a 6x14 Flame BIrch stave snare drum with continuous grain matching. It has a slightly thinner shell than many of my drums at .40” thick, and it has roundover to 30 degree bearing edges to maximize the contact between the head and shell, thereby increasing the influence of the shell on the overall sound. It has brushed aluminum single point low mass lugs and chrome tension rods, chrome die cast hoops, a chrome Trick throw off, Puresound Custom Pro brass 20 strand snare wires, and Remo heads. It’s finished in aqua blue and orange stripes and 6 coats of incredibly durable high gloss polyester clear coat. In order to accentuate the stave connections, I dyed the exterior of the shell dark red/purple, and then sanded off the dye so that it would remain only in the grain on the edges of the staves, thereby giving a cool vertical element to the finish.
The shell combined with the rounded bearing edges give this drum a fantastic tuning range and it looks pretty sleek, too.
*****this drum is sold, but I would be glad to build another one just like it for you or I can customize it to your liking
