Eye-catching Snare with Powerful Sound TAMA's Starclassic Performer snare drum enhances the acclaimed design of the company's Starclassic Maple series with a unique sonic twist. Its shell combines two internal plies of maple with four external plies of birch, resulting in an articulate, dynamic sound grounded by a tonally warm core. The Starclassic Performer snare comes equipped with outstanding hardware for sonic reinforcement, including top-notch zinc die-cast hoops, Starclassic lugs, a speedy MLS30A/B throw off system, and a 20-strand set of Super-Sensitive Hi-Carbon snare wires — a traditionally snappy recipe for success according to many timekeepers here at Sweetwater. Outfitted with high-quality TAMA-by-Evans drumheads, the Starclassic Performer provides you with rugged durability and professional-grade rebound right out of the box. Cloaked in a gorgeous lacquer finish that's available only at Sweetwater and rounded out with sharp Starclassic badging, this charming Starclassic Performer snare drum is ready to be the backbeat
