The shell construction is the core of the drum’s resonance-focused design.

Independent shopping perspective
Yamaha’s 14 x 5.5-inch Stage Custom Birch snare places a six-ply, 100% birch shell at the center of its design. The shell is intended to carry vibrations from the impact surface and support resonance. A 1.5 mm steel triple-flange hoop setup, B-Type side throw-off, and Remo heads complete the drum. Finished in Honey Amber, it is a straightforward Stage Custom snare built around birch-shell construction and named hardware components.
