Pork Pie has garnered a world-class reputation for their versatile and solidly-built maple snare drums, and this 6x14 snare in Chartreuse Sparkle Lacquer is no exception. Maple is an incredibly versatile tonewood; its frequency response tends to favor lower-end while maintaining an overall balance of sound, making it well suited for just about any style of music. The thin, 8-ply all-maple shell works in tandem with 45-degree bearing edges to produce a full, resonant tone in lower tunings, and a crisp, articulate pop in higher tunings. The shell and bearing edge combination also increase this drum’s sensitivity; dynamically-minded players will love the sensitive stick response this drum allows for.
The drum artisans at Pork Pie have always had an amazing attention to detail and this Maple Snare returns the favor. Constructed with Pork Pie's progressive ply design, this snare features an 8-ply, maple shell interior and an exterior veneer featuring a B20 Sparkle wrap. It's an exquisite design which is only rivaled by the craftsmanship within.
Offering bearing edges that are hand-sanded and precision cut, the tonal quality of the shell give you the warmth of maple. The hardware includes hourglass lugs, exclusive to Pork Pie, and 2.3mm heavy-duty hoops that can take the best you can dish out. The drum comes outfitted with Remo USA heads so you're able to enjoy fine tones straight out of the box.
In 1987, Bill Detamore started making drums as a hobby. He sold one, made two more, and so on. This evolved into some of the finest handmade drums available today. To take snare drums one step further, he introduced solid (one piece), exotic wood stave and plate brass designs. Pork Pie has also introduced their Little Squealer and Hip Pig series of drums to round out the line.
Over the years, Pork Pie has become the place where a drummer can hot rod an existing kit with new bearing edges, refinishing, or design the kit of their dreams. Bill's signature is on the inside of every Pork Pie USA drum. This is his guarantee of quality. Pork Pie's goal is your total satisfaction.
