Our goal is to provide our customers with the most musical and articulate drums available today. We guarantee you will love your HHG drum and it will hold a special place in anyone's arsenal of instruments, from beginner to professional. After all, we're in the business of making drummers happy!!!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drum represents the combination of lots of hard work and research and development that we've been involved in over the past couple of months. We made the steel shell for this drum in house. It is handmade using old world metal fabrication techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe material in this drum is raw plate steel, that's 1\/8 of an inch thick. This is not your everyday normal steel snare drum. Almost all steel drums on the market are made from thin gauge steel sheet metal that is either rolled or spun into a cylinder. This thin sheet metal can make for an abrasive and unpleasant sound. By using a much thicker gauge of metal, we managed to capture the power and focus of a steel drum, while still being a warm and musical instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe finish on this drum is a chemically applied oxide patina. Our goal was to keep the steel as close to its original form as possible, let the material speak for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis drum also features oil rubbed bronze single point lugs, black nickel 2.3mm hoops, a vintage P-85 style strainer, and a die-cast air vent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere are some additional specs for this drum:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDepth: 7\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiameter: 14\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShell thickness:1\/8\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinish: oxide patina\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBearing edge: roundover\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSnare bed: 3\/32\" deep and 2.625\" wide\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHardware: oil rubbed bronze single point lugs, 2.3mm black nickel hoops, vintage style strainer, 30 strand snare wires, diecast air vent and butt plate, Antique silver HHG badge\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with all of our drums and listings shown, when you place an order with HHG Drums, \u003cb\u003eyour new instrument will be hand-crafted in house, from scratch\u003c\/b\u003e.
