Maple shell, standard triple snare mechanism
combination of 6-curly wire, 6 coated cable and 6 bare cable
Commentary and drumming by Superdrum Founder, Dave Bedrosian
WHY 12 LUGS? Superdrum takes snare-drum-building tradition a step further by increasing the tension points and creating an unsurpassed accuracy and sensitivity with an extremely wide dynamic range. Clarity and definition of an orchestral snare sound which "speaks" in every concert hall setting, brings the snare voice to a new standard, and level of articulation.
Eliminate the need, cost and weight of die-cast hoops,.. the solution is in having twelve individual tension points that balances the head while securing the fine tuning adjustment at TWELVE tension points. Each lug has its own independent studded gasket, optimizing resonance of the shell and minimum lug-to-shell contact.
SUPERDRUM Orchestral Models all feature the Orchestral THREE separate snare mechanisms allowing the player complete versatility and selection from any combination of 6-curly wire, 6 coated cable and 6 bare cable snare units, as standard. The combination of sounds and immediate adjustment are endless.
Highly figured Natural Maple with high gloss lacquer finish feature precision bearing edge and snare bed, making this drum the "New Orchestral Standard" for orchestral wood-shell snare drums. Equipped with Remo Renaissance Diplomat batter and snare heads. Introductory Showroom price, $655.00
Solid one-piece Brass Shell, combines the clarity and articulation of a metal shell - with resonance beyond compare. A new definition of a controllable LOUD snare drum with individual snare choice flexibility. Introductory Showroom price, $655.00
Featuring a 5 mm thick aluminum shell, this drum weighs in at 13lbs. of shear orchestral energy and dynamic range. While the Audition Standard over the past five years has turned to aluminum shell drums. This 12-Lug SUPERDRUM replaces that definition with a sound and ease of tuning unlike any other drum on the market. Introductory Showroom price, $755.00
About SUPERDRUM - The concept of a twelve lug snare drum has been around for over three decades, but never available as a U.S. manufactured specialty drum with the design focus on sound and performance. Superdrum has developed a select following for drumset snare drums, offering a wide spectrum of sizes and shell materials and snare mechanisms. Now, Professional Percussion Products brings the orchestral snare drum models to the attention and demand of those orchestral professionals seeking a better snare drum at a more affordable price.
