Tama 50th Anniversary Mastercraft Rosewood 14"x6.5" Snare Drum
In the 1980s, TAMA's first introduced the Mastercraft Rosewood Snare Drum. At that time, it was the first and only 100% rosewood drum of its kind in the drum market. Hard and dense, rosewood is known for its common use as a guitar fretboard wood. Due to density, 100% rosewood drum shells are extremely difficult to produce. Drummers in the ‘80’s era prized TAMA’s rosewood snare drums for their dark, full-bodied tones and heightened dynamic range, which aligned well with drummers pushing the boundaries for new sounds.
In celebration of TAMA’s 50th Anniversary in 2024, TAMA is reissuing this classic snare drum. The core of this drum is the 7.5mm/15ply 100% Indian Rosewood shell and comes equipped with a replica of the TAMA Superstar badge used on the original drum. This shell delivers those same dark, full-bodied, expressive tones found in the original drum. The 14”x6.5” shell depth has strong attack with thick, meaty body and explosive volume. Drum hardware includes die-cast hoops, 10 original-design lugs and internal tone control. The throw-off is TAMA’s unique Roller Action Strainer, an innovative full contact (extended) snare wire design that has a single on/off lever and dual guide rollers for easy adjustment and sensitivity. This 50th Anniversary snare drum is a faithful reproduction of the original and available in very limited quantities in 2024.
