Yamaha’s Recording Custom Aluminum snare drum offers the classic crispness of aluminum at a player’s price point. The thin 1.2mm allows the drum to fully and warmly resonate, while the 3mm hoops add a degree of focus, resulting in an open yet articulate tone. Perfectly suited for jazz and classic rock, this snare provides gigging drummers with an affordable and versatile workhorse.

The new addition of the metal snare lineup to the Recording Custom series represents the addition of Yamaha’s finest snare drums, using Steve’s valuable input to its maximum. It adds a superb consistency, allowing drummers to fully utilize the sound functionality of the kit.
