The New Tee Drums vertical grain Birch with a vertical grain satin oiled Zebrano is an 8.7mm thick shell providing a very fast responsive sound from the vertical grain (research and testing has proved that the vibrations run from top to bottom along the grain nearly 4 times faster than a horizontal grain). This is a great all round snare drum offering mid to top range with a clear and crisp sound. I tend to fit single ply coated white heads (Ambassadors or G1) these bring out the sensitivity of the shell. This Snare drum is available from Tee Drums in any depth and the thickness can be from 5.7mm – 21mm. |
