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 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.
Here’s something cool we cooked up this week while finishing up a run of Dragon Snares. This is a 14″x7″ Sounds Like Art snare with a custom mixed red mahogany base, natural maple flames, and a Scorched top coat. After the scorched top coat is applied, it is carefully rubbed by hand to get just the right effect. Check it out:
Here is another Sounds Like Art Series II snare, this one sporting a custom aged mahogany stain complimented by Silver Vein powder coating. The shell is our standard 14″x7″ solid maple shell and the Dunnett R-Class strainer, 2.3mm hoops, and solid brass tube lugs come standard. The Sounds Like Art series has an unlimited number of finish options, if you can dream it we can do it! Click here to see our full gallery, options, and ideas.

This is a beautiful Sounds Like Art Series II snare carved from solid Bubinga. Also known as the Dragon Snare, it’s 14″x7″ of pure beefy attack. The finishing work consists of nothing more than a clear coat over the natural color of the Bubinga, providing a rich contrast against the chrome hardware. A truly beautiful drum that sounds great, check it out:
