The PDP 6" x 12" Concept Black Wax Maple Snare Drum is named because of the hand-applied wax sealer that protects the natural exterior and creates that dark, earthy matte finish. Maple is a favorite wood for snare drums - warm and naturally EQ'd with balanced lows, mids, and highs.

The dimensions on this drum are almost tom-like; the small diameter and relatively deep depth allow you to tune the drum really high without choking the head or losing the punch of a larger drum. It's an excellent secondary snare drum to give you an extra sound in your arsenal.

This drum comes equipped with dual-turret lugs, a sturdy MAG throw-off, True-Pitch Tuning tension rods with more threads for finer tuning, and Remo heads.
