The DW MFG True-Cast Snare Drum is a limited edition snare drum created by a collaboration between longtime DW artist and collector, Dave Elitch, and the DW Research and Development team. This unique snare drum is assembled at the legendary California Custom Shop. The 5 x 14 snare features a sand-cast and machined bell bronze shell that provides a contoured internal shape from 5mm on the top and bottom edges to 3mm in the center. Powerful drums provide a thick bass punch that doesn't interfere with tuning at all. The snare is equipped with a True-Cast counter hoop, mini turret lug, Mini MAG drop, and True-Pitch tension rod, all made from brass to exacting standards. This drum features 20 strands of True Tone snare wire and a single-layer Remo Ambassador snare head with the DW MFG logo. **Only 100 snare drums will be produced! With each handcrafted True-Cast comes with a certificate of authenticity.
