Majestic Opus One Cast Iron Concert Snare Drum - 14x5 - Product Information
The Majestic Opus One Cast Iron Concert Snare Drum pays homage to the iconic sewer pipe drums, offering a reimagined concept with enhanced range and projection for demanding musical performances. The 6.35mm seamless cast iron shell, paired with die-cast hoops, delivers unparalleled focus, exceptional sensitivity, and a distinctive tone.
This instrument's rich and resonant sound, with its remarkable projection, is achieved through the shell's thickness and the hybrid bearing edge design. The batter side's rounded edge enhances the raw power of the tone, while the sharp 45-degree cut on the snare side maximizes sensitivity. The die-cast hoops further contribute to the instrument's well-rounded and impressive sound.
The OP-01 strainer, renowned for its smooth and silent operation, features a classic design with a functional twist. Its laser-engraved knurled vertical fine tuner adjustment offers precise control and adds a sleek aesthetic.
Each drum in the series boasts a unique set of hybrid snare cables, carefully chosen to optimize sensitivity and create a personalized playing experience. The chrome-plated "I" lugs not only add an elegant and classic touch but also enhance the instrument's overall performance and shell resonance.
Every model in the Opus One series is meticulously tested and refined in collaboration with world-renowned artists. They come with specific head combinations and tuning suggestions, ensuring an exceptional playing experience from the moment you open the box.
