The Tama Brian Frasier Moore Signature Snare is crafted with an 8-ply bubbinga shell with the outer ply of quilted bubinga decorated with a chrome inlay. The snare drum's unique dual 45° bearing edges allow for maximum energy transfer between the head and shell. This gives the Brian Frasier-Moore drum added clarity and a full, resonant tone. The combination of deeper snare beds and Tama's 42-strand carbon-steel snappy snares offers greatly increased sensitivity and better snare response through various tensions. Tune the Brian Frasier-Moore snare drum down for a low, fat sound or crank it up high like a piccolo snare—and everything in between.A powerful, sensitive, and responsive drum that is as versatile as its designer.
