Sounds Like Art 14″x7″ Dragon, Distressed Black on Black

by Dennis
January 2nd, 2012

The 14″x7″ Dragon Snare from the Sounds Like Art series is one of the most popular sizes we craft.  The thick shell provides projection, a crisp sound and thick sounding rim shots.  The depth gives the drum a lot of body, with more tone than most people expected from such a drum.  This dragon features a distressed black paint job, with layers of silver to accent the carvings and black plated hardware.  Check it out:

Black Label 14″x7″ Snare with Aged Pearl inlays, rolled steel hoops

by Dennis
December 6th, 2011

Today’s post features a Black Label snare in the popular Perfect Brown satin lacquer, but with a few custom touches that set it apart from the rest.  A 1/4″ Pre-Aged Pearl inlay is beautifully centered in the middle of the shell and goes well with the cold rolled steel hoops and vintage style claws.  The 8-Ply Maple VSS shell, Trick GS007 throw off, Puresound snare wires, and solid brass tube lugs are all standard features.  A beautiful blend of modern construction and classic style, check it out:

Distressed Acid-Etched Copper on a 14″x7″ Phattie Snare

by Dennis
December 5th, 2011

The latest addition to the Copper Collection is this dark “Distressed Acid Etched” finish.  Featuring black undertones with shiny streaks of copper between them,  it has a much more earthy and dark look than the Blue-Etched and Drip-Etched finishes.  Featuring a 10-ply maple shell in our popular 14″x7″ size, this Phattie snare sounds as good as it looks.  Black plated hardware, a Trick GS007 strainer, Puresound wires and solid-brass tube lugs make for a stunning package.  Check it out:

A beautiful example of StarGlow acrylic, this one comes with a video sample so you can check how smooth and even the glow of our low profile LED systems are.  The drums are standard Phattie Acrylic specs: dual 45 degree bearing edges with a smooth contact patch, solid brass tube lugs, Gauger Alloy RIMS mounts, Evans heads, etc.  The sizes include 10″x10″, 12″x11″, and 13″x12″ hanging toms, 22″x18″ bass and 14″x7″ snare drum.  This custom LED install includes double-density LED’s and a custom controller that offers independent control of individual channels.  The final result is a smooth looking kit, with or without the lights on.  Check it out:

Black Label 14″x7″ Workhorse with Cold Rolled hoops

by Dennis
November 7th, 2011

This 14″x7 Black Label snare drum features 4mm thick cold rolled steel hoops for a great wide-open sound.  Thicker than traditional single-flanged hoops, these 4mm steel hoops provide a great wide-open tone but have thick rim shots similar to a diecast hoop.  Combined with vintage-style claws over a perfect brown satin lacquer, this is one classic looking beauty.  Check it out:
