Snares

The snare drum. The heart of any drum kit.

Modern snare drums are available in many different sizes and styles. Choosing the right snare drum to suit your style of music is an important decision. Snare drums are available in various types of woods, metals and acrylic materials.  Although the typical size for most snare drums is 14 inches in diameter by either 5.5" or 6.5" other smaller sizes are available.  Bigger, deeper shells are more suitable for louder music such as rock and metal. Smaller, shallower drums are more suitable if volume is less important.
