Gretsch Full Range Snare Drum 8″ X 14″, Hammered Black Steel – S1-0814-BSH

Gretsch Full Range Snare Drum 8" X 14", Hammered Black Steel - S1-0814-BSH

The Gretsch 8″ x 14″ Full Range Hammered Steel Snare Drum puts out a bright, focused attack that is slightly drier than many other steel snares because of the 1.2mm steel shell and its larger-than-usual hammering pattern. This drum is equipped with some premium hardware without the premium price, including an adjustable throw-off, black nylon tension rod washers, black nylon snare straps, and Remo heads. At a massive 8″ deep, this drum is particularly suited for low tunings and creating a lot of power at medium tunings. The black steel finish on the shell helps this drum stand out from the rest of the pack – it will look very good behind your kit.

Brand

Gretsch

Gretsch is an American company that manufactures musical instruments. The company was founded in 1883 in Brooklyn, New York by Friedrich Gretsch, a 27-year-old German immigrant, shortly after his arrival to the United States. Friedrich Gretsch manufactured banjos, tambourines, and drums until his death in 1895. In 1916, his son, Fred Gretsch Sr. moved operations to a larger facility where Gretsch went on to become a prominent manufacturer of American musical instruments. Most modern-era Gretsch guitars are manufactured in the Far East, though American-made "Custom Shop" models are available. In 2002, Gretsch entered a business agreement with Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC). Under the terms of that agreement Fred W. Gretsch would retain ownership while FMIC would handle most of the development, distribution and sales. Through the years, Gretsch has manufactured a wide range of instruments, though they currently focus on electric, acoustic and resonator guitars, basses, ukuleles, and drums.
