In the 1980s, TAMA's Mastercraft Rosewood Snare Drum was the first and only drum of its kind. As a hard and dense material, Rosewood is commonly used as guitar fretboards, and at the time was only found on drums as a single outer-ply veneer. Full Rosewood drums are extremely difficult to produce, but their pure sound and dark tone makes them extremely popular among drummers looking for a new sound. Not long after the original release of the Mastercraft Rosewood Snare Drum, the TAMA brand became synonymous with Rosewood.
15 ply of Indian Rosewood formed in Tama's heat compression molds into an incredibly strong shell. Like the bell brass the Rosewood snare can't be found in anyone else's drum line but Tama's. Finished in a natural rosewood mat finish, this snare looks as good as it sounds!
This 50th Anniversary Limited Edition model faithfully recreates the iconic sound of the original drum. Whether you were a fan of Tama from the beginning or are just discovering their legacy, this snare drum is sure to impress. With the included Remo Ambassador Coated Tama 50th Anniversary version head, you can expect an exceptional combination of durability and tone.
