We have tuned the popular Maple Custom Series snare drum to produce even greater sensitivity and tonal control. By carefully processing the top bearing edge to make it a rounder, 60-degree 2R edge, deeper fundamental tone has been brought out. Additionally, by giving the bottom rim a sharper angle of 45-degree 1R, the bottom head and the snare react more sensitively to each other. The greater depth of the bottom head contributes to that sensitivity.
7ply Maple shell sealed by our Air-Seal System that woods cut into plies are sealed together precisely with evenly distributed air pressure.
Aluminum Die-cast Hoop (3.0mm)
The 3.0mm Aluminum Die-Cast hoop provides many of the attributes of the Zinc hoop, firmly anchors the drumhead and delivers penetrating, full-bodied rimshots, but without the extra weight. Rimshots are slightly more open, while attack and decay are magnified. This hoop fix the head securely on the bearing edge. This precise head seating promotes natural tone and minimizes sound loss.
Bearing Edge
Top : R2, 60°
Bottom : R1, 45°
In 40 years of product development, Yamaha has found four wood snare drum bearing edge designs that produce unique tonal character and depth. Sharp edges deliver sharper tone with excellent response and rounded angles produce a rounder, thicker tone. Varying the thickness of the radius top allows for further modification. Using different bearing designs on the top and bottom of the snare is also effective in modifying the tone.
Snare Bed
Snare bed depth greatly influences snare effectiveness making it the most important factor in creating the snare drum sound.
This model's snare bed is 2.7mm that offers greater snare sensitivity.
Vent Holes
The number of vent holes in the shell has an impact on projection. The number of vent holes found in Yamaha snare drums will vary according to the type of tone being sought.
A two-hole design like that used on the Sensitive Series offers greater response.
Strainer
H type (Release) and G type (Butt)
Small Lugs
Our lugs incorporate special lug receiving units, not springs, for seating tuning rods securely.
The lugs casing are small in size, minimizing lug-to-shell contact, and incorporating nylon inserts that prevent tuning rods from loosening under heavy rimshots.
Snare
Stainless steel 20 strands (SNRS) for 14"sizes and 14 strands (SN13RS) for 13"size.
*Snare Plate (Pat. Pend.)
Yamaha snare plates offer superior snare to head contact due to the slight bend in their design. When the string is drawn tight, the edge of the patented snare plate is pulled upward putting the snare in full contact with the head.
*Strong Snare Strings
Nylon strings are covered with a nylon braid for maximum strength and durability.
