Brian's signature snare drum features an 8 ply Bubinga shell with an outer ply of Quilted Bubinga and a Chrome inlay. The snare's unique bearing edge allows for the most energy transfer between the head and shell. This gives the drum added clarity and a full, resonant tone.
The combination of deeper snare beds and TAMA's 42-strand carbon steel snappy snares offers greatly increased sensitivity and better snare response through various tensions. It can be tuned down for a low, fat sound, cranked up high like a piccolo and everything in between. The result is a powerful, sensitive and responsive drum that is as versatile as its designer.
