AW-455. Tame swirl 14x5'' Mastercraft Artwood, 50th Anniversary.
Released in 1980, fans of the Mastercraft Artwood snare drum have been eagerly awaiting its re-release. This snare drum is known for its obviously stunning appearance and is adorned with a beautifully colored multi-section wood inlay in the center. The 9mm/6-skit birch shell provides a significant low-mid tone and clear projection. For a detailed and sensitive twirl response, the drum features TAMA's unique Roller Action mechanism, an innovative full-contact drum design, which uses a single on/off lever and dual guide rollers for easy and versatile adjustment.
This faithful reproduction of TAMA's original Mastercraft Artwood snare drum is an incredibly beautiful celebration of TAMA's 50th anniversary.
