Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Hand hammered at TAMA’s factory in Japan, this 14 x 5.5-inch STAR Reserve snare centers on a light 1.5 mm brass shell and a shaped, barrel-like profile. The shell is worked with different hammer sizes at its edges and center, bringing out balanced, resonant brass tones. TAMA pairs it with customized 2.3 mm brass Mighty Hoops whose shaved edges are made for a bright, sharp attack. The result is a snare designed to let its natural brass sound resonate across playing volumes.
