DWPure Walnut Snare Drum - 14 x 6.5 in. Satin Quick Ebony Burst
1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
DW’s 14 x 6.5-inch Pure Walnut snare pairs a walnut shell with VLT construction, which sets the plies vertically to lower the drum’s fundamental pitch. The result is described as deep and musical, with focused definition, full body, and a shorter note than traditional maple or birch drums. Its Satin Quick Ebony Burst finish is hand applied. True-Hoops, True Pitch 50 tension rods, a MAG throw-off, and a five-position butt plate complete the hardware layout for stage or recording work.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage or recording setups that call for a walnut snare with focused articulation and a tighter decay.
- Drummers seeking a 14 x 6.5-inch snare whose VLT shell lowers the fundamental pitch.
