This VIRTUE: Diligence™ 14" x 5" Snare Drum features a hand hammered brass shell. Brass yields a loud, bright sound with excellent sensitivity, however this model has added tonal complexity and subtle dryness courtesy of the hammering. An artistically distressed finish offers a visually unique look.
 
Other features include ten traditional chrome-over-brass tube lugs, 2.3mm triple-flanged rims, dual-adjustable snare throw-off & butt plate so you can perfectly center the Puresound snare wires, nylon shoulder washers facilitate smooth, accurate tuning and prevent tension rod rattle at lower tensions, and high-quality drumheads by Evans to deliver professional results straight away.
