The ideals sought for the Harvey Mason signature snare drum were described as "dry" and "short sustain". The main shell construction is White Birch, which gives a dark tone and great projection. We added an outer ply of Walnut to add dryness and to give a shorter, controlled sustain. Canopus applied the perfect matching bearing edge to this hybrid shell and managed to obtain a crisp and pleasant sound. This snare is especially good for Jazz and Fusion styles."My Canopus snare drum is versatile, consistent, warm, bright, responsive, sensitive, and equally adaptable in live gigs or recording sessions. And it's hand-made!! It's a must for every serious drum artist and studio. Trust me on this!"
