Black Swamp Mercury SoundArt SA3513MDT-CR 13x3.5" 7-Ply Maple Snare Drum, Cherry

The Black Swamp Mercury SoundArt SA3513MDT-CR 13x3.5" 7- Ply Maple Snare Drum is a professional grade piccolo snare  and audition drum that can be used for much more than an audition. The Mini Trio Snare System gives you the same control over timbre and response as our SoundArt System. This drum features a 7-Ply Maple Shell in a Cherry Rosewood Stain. Maple shells offer an excellent balance of characteristics that have made it a workhorse in concert and orchestral music  for over a century. Our bearing edges are shaped to bring out the natural body, warmth, and clarity that maple has to offer.
The Mercury Series drums are designed for the ultimate in clarity and articulation. While these drums are excellent for the audition circuit, they are also versatile enough to find regular use on the snare stand.  
The SoundArt Snare System works as a cohesive unit and blends the 3 systems together for a consistent tonal and dynamic  response at all playing levels. This system is precisely machined in the USA from aircraft grade aluminum.
