Gretsch S1-6514A-WH Aluminum/Wood Hoop 14''x6.5'' Snare

Gretsch S1-6514A-WH Aluminum/Wood Hoop 14''x6.5'' Snare 

Gretsch welcomes another new member to the Gold series snare line. The thin brushed aluminum shell creates a drier, more sensitive tone due to the inherent qualities of aluminum. The tone is more focused with less overtones. These qualities are offset by the sharp tonal contrast of the 13 ply rock maple hoops. The wood hoops are low profile to enhance playing comfort and feature beveled edges to provide a unique look. Sonically, these hoops produce an earthy, warm timbre with explosive cross-stick clicks. From delicate buzz rolls to piercing back beats, the new Gold Series Aluminum/Wood hoops snare is visually and sonically differentiated.
