ITEM DESCRIPTION Hendrix John Blackwell Signature Snare Drum 14x6
This Limited Signature Series was built in cooperation with the long time drummer for Prince, John Blackwell. John tried out several Hendrix snares and fell in love with the bright resonant tone, piercing attack, and sensitivity of African Padauk. The 14" x 6" size combined with the 1/4" thin stave shell gives this drum optimum performance at any tuning, so much so that John uses two of them for every gig; one cranked up for his main snare and the other tuned low as his side snare.Features:Every Instrument is Hand Built in the USAAfrican Padauk Shell, 1/4" Thin Stave ConstructionProprietary Hendrix LugsR7-3 Position ThrowDual Adjustable Carbon Snare WiresWorld's First Brass S-HoopsBrass Tight ScrewsProprietary Hendrix Sleeved WashersMY TAKE ON IT/RECOMMENDATIONS At Drum Center of Portsmouth, it’s important to us that you get the products that are right for your needs.
