Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The OCDP Birch Snare is a 14 x 5.5 inch drum with a 7.2 mm birch/poplar/birch shell, built for bright, focused response and controlled low end. Its 45-degree bearing edges, 2.5 mm steel hoops, 20 offset lugs, and front-mounted throw-off form a tuning and snare-response platform that stays clear through dynamic changes. Twenty-strand wires support defined ghost notes and backbeats, while the included Remo UT heads make it ready to play. Gloss black lacquer and spectrum vacuum-coated hardware give the drum its distinct appearance.
