The Copper shell produces deep, dark low end and is highly responsive. The hand hammered finish on the Roy Haynes model creates a deeper tone with more sensitivity than previous copper shells.
The 2.3mm thick steel hoop enhances the copper shell's tone with tightness and sharpness.
To get the most sound out of the shell possible, small lugs are incorporated due to their minimum lug to shell contact. Bolts attach to a precision-machined lug nut inside the casing for superior performance.
At Roy's request, we revived the internal mute that used to be standard equipment on the snare drum. Muting of the head is quick and easy while providing subtle control over the sound.
Roy's ideas also resulted in the wider Hi-carbon Steel snare that has 5 more strands than a standard snare. This design produces a heavy, yet delicate sound the feels quite comfortable.This drum is in "like new" condition and will be safely padded and shipped in the hard case shown in the pictures that is included in this sale.
