Manufacturer's Description from Canopus

This Snare Drum is truly worthy to be called “THE Maple” because of its natural brilliance, good sound projection, and a complex, controlled high-pitched overtone series. Standard equipped vintage snare wires give it a sensitive feel, and the shell construction is designed for the best sound production with a delicate and precise bearing edge.
