The Yamaha Recording Custom 14x8" Birch Snare Drum is a drum kit built to help you get a full, musical drum sound — supplied as genuine Australian stock with local warranty. In order to maximize the attenuating properties of the birch wood, the one-piece lug design ensures optimum sustain of the core sound producing a crisp, articulate tone.

Why You’ll Love It

  • Get a full, musical drum sound — the traditional essence of the Recording Custom.
  • Enjoy great feel under the sticks — the 6-ply, 6 mm 100% birch shells have a unique sonic characteristic that ensures each stroke speaks clearly.
  • Tune it your way — the 30-degree bearing edges deliver a sharp response and clear snare sensitivity across the dynamic range.
  • Built for gigs and practice — the shells have a wide tuning range, respond well to different head choices and are easy to tune.
