Pearl STA1450BR Sensitone Black Nickel 14"x05" Aluminum Snare Drum

Practical and affordable, Pearl's 14" x 5" SensiTone Beaded Black Nickel/Brass Snare Drum features a 1mm-thick shell that has a characteristically warm, vintage-sounding tone. A shell with this amount of depth will have power to the attack, but it won't get too meaty or overpowering.

These snare drums come equipped with with SR-150 Gladstone-style strainers that feature Click-Lock technology, essentially locking the snare lever and tension adjuster in place wherever you happen to set it. It won't loosen even under the loudest playing.

SuperHoop II hoops make tuning a fairly simple process, and they're surprisingly durable. You'll also get a Remo Coated Ambassador batter head, classic tube-style lugs, and a revamped SensiTone badge for the finishing touch.

As you can see, this drum also features a very tasteful black nickel plating on the shell.
