Today’s drum is a 14″x7″ Sounds Like Art Dragon Snare that recently made it’s way to Australia. The Sounds Like Art snares feature stave-construction shells out of various woods, and detailed 3D carvings that set them apart from anything else. This snare features a maple shell nearly 1″ thick, for a tight sound with lots of projection and cut. The 7″ depth makes sure the drum still has a lot of body and a thick sound to it, so it’s not just the cut/attack you hear. Black chrome hardware, a black Trick strainer, and custom ordered Evans heads round out this package for an awesome look, check it out:
Several Dragon Snares shipped out this week, all 14″x7″ with Maple shells. This one has our “Scorched Maple” finish with all chrome hardware. The shell is just a hair under 1″ thick and is made using stave construction before carving. The result is an amazing piece of art that has an perfect blend of attack and warmth. Check out these close-ups of the detail that goes into construction:
Notice how the tail wraps under the butt plate? It’s all about the details…
This 14″x7″ Dragon Snare features unique coloring that allowed the main shell to be stained a deep red, while the flames remained a natural maple that accents the detail in the carving. Black Chrome hardware and a Dunnett R-Class strainer provide function that goes great with the form, dig it:

This cool 14″x7″ Dragon Snare from the Sounds Like Art series was finished in a deep red stain with our Scorched Maple finish over the top. To compliment this color combo we added Scorched Carbon hardware for a deep textured black. The all maple shell measures almost 1″ thick, for a snare that projects and cuts just as good as it looks.
