Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Replacement butt-end plate for a TAMA snare — the fixed side that anchors the snare wires opposite the throw-off. A repair part, not an upgrade.

TAMA Snare Drum Butt product detail
Product studyTAMA Snare Drum Butt

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Replacing a cracked or stripped butt plate on a TAMA snare
  • Snare wires that keep slipping loose on the non-lever side
  • Keeping a spare in the hardware case for gigging kits

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Other brands, unless the mounting holes happen to line up
  • Anyone chasing a better snare sound — this is hardware, not tone
  • Drummers whose throw-off lever is the broken part

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Butt end, not the throw-off

This is the fixed anchor opposite the lever. A broken tension lever needs a strainer, not this.

Detail 02

TAMA-drilled mounting

Hole spacing follows TAMA shell drilling. Fitting it to another shell usually means drilling new holes.

Detail 03

Snare wire anchor point

Your cord or strap clamps here. Both work as long as the slot takes the width you use.

Detail 04

Sits flat against the shell

If the plate is bent or loose, the wires sit crooked and contact the head unevenly across the batter.

Detail 05

Hardware, not a tuning part

The clamp screw is the wear point. Overtighten it and the thread strips, letting wires drift while you play.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Snare wires, cord and strap are separate — reuse yours or order them
  2. 02Compare hole spacing against the plate you are removing before you commit
  3. 03You need a drum key and a screwdriver to swap it out

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will this fit a non-TAMA snare?

Only if the mounting holes line up. It is cut for TAMA drilling, so measure the hole spacing on the plate you are replacing before ordering.

02What's the difference between the butt and the strainer?

The strainer, or throw-off, is the lever that tensions and releases the wires. The butt is the fixed plate on the far side that holds the other end.

03Do snare wires come with it?

No. This is the mounting plate on its own. Reuse your current wires and cord or strap, or buy those separately.

04Will this fix my snare buzz?

Only if the buzz comes from a bent or loose butt plate holding the wires crooked. Buzz from tuning or sympathetic vibration will not change.
