English Yew. The Medieval archer's choice, transformed into a beautiful shell. The British Drum Co. 'The Archer' 14 x 6" Yew Snare Drum has been lovingly handcrafted in the UK, using methods that ensure pristine sonic quality. Yew is a durable, flexibility tempered wood that produces warm, fat tones reminiscent of maple — its destiny was to become an exquisite snare drum...
British Drum Co have made that a reality. The 10-ply shell features 30° roundover bearing edges which add further 'meat' to an already lusciously warm sounding shell. Equally, Yew offers a lively brightness adding that much needed top-end. Sounds gorgeous and looks the part, with aesthetic touches like the arrow badge, and an attractive golden BDC badge embellished with green sycamore to symbolise its English lineage.
The 5mm rolled steel single-flange hoops look and sound pretty special too...
