The Padauk Piccolo

This 4.125×14 inch custom handcrafted snare drum is built from 100% solid Padauk wood staves. That lovely color and figuring is not a veneer, it’s through and through Padauk. Padauk is an African wood that is incredibly hard - about 50% harder than maple, but has a much more complex grain structure and red appearance. It is finished in pretty, pricey, durable high gloss polyester.

This drum has:

• offset 45 degree bearing edges.

• a 0.66” thick stave shell

• chrome lugs

• chrome stick saver triple flanged hoops and brass tension rods

• 25 strand snare wires

• chrome throw off and deluxe butt plate

• Matching air vent grommet

• Remo heads.

  ****like many of the drums that we sell here, this one currently resides with a client. We would be glad to build one exactly like this or customize it to your specifications. Turnaround time is usually 5 to 7 weeks
