Majestic Opus One Brass Shell Concert Snare Drum

The Opus One Shell Concert Snare Drum is crafted from sturdy and reliable brass, a preferred shell material that provides extreme clarity and performance in a variety of musical settings. The antique nickel-brushed finish over a 1.2mm brass shell exudes understated elegance while offering a pure tone and sensitivity throughout the dynamic range. The Opus One has a smooth and silent OP-01 strainer that's a simple and functional design featuring a laser-engraved, knurled vertical fine-tuner adjustment. Chrome plated "I" lugs and hybrid snares maximize the look and sensitivity of the sound. Each model comes with specific head combinations and Drumdial tuning suggestions through extensive testing and collaboration with renowned artists. The Opus One has an integrated bridge that sets the optimal angle to allow the cables to establish a true and consistent point of contact with the resonate side head. It also features a revolutionary “Rigid-Cast” claw hook design that uses an oblong receiver hole enclosed in a diecast housing. This helps prevents cracking, ensures proper tuning alignment and allows flexible tolerance for both synthetic and natural heads.
