About Warlord Snare Drums

The Warlord collection is simply like no other series of snare drum ever. Each of the 4 drums draws its inspiration from the power, discipline and elan of one of history's elite warrior forces ... the adventurous Norse Vikings, the Spartans of Ancient Greece, Imperial Rome's Praetorian Guard and the fearless Masai of Africa. The aggressive and commanding sounds of these drums are complemented by hardware that evokes visions of the intricately decorated weaponry of the past while providing the unrestrained sound and tuning stability that only modern TAMA drum technology can provide.

Spartan

Spartan's 14"x6" Stainless Steel shell features TAMA's unique double-flanged Resonant Sound Edge (R.S.E.). R.S.E. provides an unprecedented sound that explodes with hi-tech modern day tones combined with the tonal characteristics of the most revered vintage drums. The Spartan is equipped with the newly designed Hi-Carbon snappy snare, which offers ultimate response, precise articulation, sensitivity and volume.

Praetorian

Praetorian's 14"x6" Bell Brass shell is one of TAMA's most legendary innovations.

The newly designed Hi-Carbon snappy snare offers ultimate response, precise articulation, and both sensitivity and volume!

Masai

Masai's 14"x6" Bubinga shell is a mysterious paradox—it offers both extreme highs and extreme lows. Possibly one of the fullest and richest sounding snare drums ever made!
