What We Think

Pork Pie is known for constructing quality drums and offering them at affordable price points, and this Walnut snare drum is no exception. The thin 7x13 Walnut shell offers plenty of low-end and a full-bodied tone in medium to low tunings. This drum also works well when tuned up, as the 13" diameter allows for a snappy, articulate pop in higher ranges. 

As a tonewood, Walnut has a similar frequency response to Maple, but it features a denser and more coarse grain structure, meaning that it offers a darker and lower fundamental note than Maple. This is a must-have tonewood for any drummer.

Manufacturer's Description from Pork Pie

The drum artisans at Pork Pie have always had an amazing attention to detail and this Birch/Mahogany Snare Drum 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 Camphor Ply. It's an exquisite design which is only rivaled by the craftsmenship 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.

About Manufacturer

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.
