The Black Swamp 10" x 14" Maple Shell Field Drum brings the sound so desired by percussionists and composers when a 'field drum' is called for in the score - assuming the composer knows what they're talking about. That rich, deep field drum timbre can now be achieved without dealing with the inevitable headaches of vintage instruments. Black Swamp field drums have a thin maple shell with reinforcement rings, which help focus the deep fundamental tone and keep the shell from warping. The duo snare strainer includes eight-strand gold and eight-strand blue coated cable snares. The triple-flanged steel hoops allow more flexibility than die-cast, giving the drum a warmer overall tone and making it easier to tune.
