2021 DW Nickel over Brass Samples

Incredible Sound …

This gorgeous snare in polished black nickel with gold hardware sounds as great as it looks.  The drum features 3.0 mm Triple-flanged hoops, a 1 mm brass shell, stainless steel True Pitch tension rods, and TrueTone snares.  Awesome attack and projection from the 6.5” depth.  DW’s take on the Black Beauty is very well done.
