A 3mm shell made from cast bell brass gives this snare drum a crisp attack, a woody low end, and a pure tone. The Gretsch USA Custom Bell Brass snare has the sensitivity you want for recording and all the cut you need for large clubs. It's versatile, too. The 6.5" x 14" Bell Brass snare delivers a solid crack cranked high and a three-dimensional depth tuned low. And its 42-strand snare wire with Lightning throw off mechanism (a throwback to a fan favorite) makes this Gretsch Custom USA metal snare a standout for ghosting and grace work.
