This listing is for a Yamaha 14x5.5” Stage Custom All Birch snare drum in Cranberry Red Lacquer that’s in good, to very good condition. The cast lug that sits next to the vent had broken posts, but the posts in that lug were rethreaded so that they work fine now. That is the only (former) flaw.
As with the introduction of Stage Custom in 1995, Yamaha once again sets the standards of value and sound. The shell is a key factor in a drum's ability to "rumble," or resonate. Accordingly, the Stage Custom employs 100% birch—a classic in the realm of high-class drum kits. Moreover, with its 6-ply structure the Stage Custom accurately conveys the vibrations produced at the impact surface, achieving performance that overwhelms anything in its class. A 45-degree bearing edge ensures maximum resonance with high overtones.
This snare is fitted with 1.5 mm steel triple-flange hoops, a B-Type side throw-off and Remo heads.
