Noble & Cooley 3 7/8" x 14" Classic Solid Shell Maple Piccolo Snare Drum in Honey Maple Stain Oil

The Noble & Cooley 3 7/8" x 14" Classic Solid Shell Maple Piccolo Snare Drum is made from a single piece of 0.25" rock maple, steam-bent in a way that hasn't been changed since the Civil War. This shell resonates significantly more than any drum made with plies or staves.

Maple provides you with a naturally equalized sound across low, mid, and high frequencies, while the thin dimensions help boost even the quietest ghost notes.

Die-cast hoops lock down the tension of the drum and won't let go under pressure.

Low-mass brass lugs have been positioned specifically at nodal points to minimize their affect on the resonance of the drum, and the cam-action snare wires let you tune the drum very low or very high without choking the sound or getting too rattly.

The bearing edges on this drum have been checked and re-checked on a machinist-grade slab of granite, which is true to 1/10,000 of an inch. This attention to detail is what separates truly pristine instruments from the rest.

The Honey Maple Stain Oil finish on this drum produces a dark, natural look that catches the light and reflects back just a portion.
