Detail 01
3 mm hand-rolled, hand-polished brass shell
The shell is the basis for the snare’s described projection, resonance and sensitivity.

Independent shopping perspective
DW’s limited-edition Collector’s Series snare pairs a hand-rolled, hand-polished 3 mm brass shell with gold-finished hardware. It is made in DW’s California custom shop and described with strong projection, full low end, crisp upper frequencies and enough sensitivity for ghost notes. The MAG throw-off lets you switch snare-wire engagement with a stick movement, while True-Pitch tension rods and pre-installed DW heads by Remo support detailed tuning work. Confirm the size before ordering: the title and detailed specification disagree.
