The Korena take
At 14 x 8 in., this Collector’s Series snare combines a 1 mm rolled brass shell with a satin-black-over-brass finish and black nickel hardware. The brass shell is described as warm and resonant, with a bright, cutting edge and metallic character. A DW MAG throw-off handles snare-wire adjustment, while the 3P butt plate uses three contact points across the wires. True Pitch tension rods add precise tuning control for setting the drum’s tone and sensitivity.
