The TAMA 50th Anniversary Limited Mastercraft Steel Reissue Snare Drum is crafted with a 1.2mm steel shell and die-cast hoops, delivering a sharp, bright attack and brilliant, clear resonance. Featuring full-surface snare wires for superior articulation, this snare drum flawlessly captures the signature sound of the 80s, making it a true tribute to TAMA’s iconic legacy.
The TAMA 50th Limited Mastercraft Steel Reissue snare drum features a 1.2mm steel shell, die-cast hoops, and a distinct 8-line center groove design for a uniquely vintage look. Producing a clear, bright, and crisp attack, the TAMA 50th Limited Mastercraft Steel Reissue snare drum comes complete with full-surface snare wires for enhanced articulation, perfectly delivering the sound & look of the 80s.
To achieve clear attack, clarity, and consistent tuning, the Mastercraft snare drum models in the early 1980s featured 10-hole Die-Cast Hoops, uncommon for the time. In addition, these special 50th Anniversary models include a reproduction of the original snare side hoop with larger snare wire window.
Designed as a full-contact snare wire system, TAMA's innovative Roller Action Strainer offers extremely detailed control over snare buzz tone & sensitivity. Past parallel action strainers required an internal rod to operate the strainer & butt at the same time, but TAMA's new streamlined design eliminated the need for an internal rod by utilizing a single on/off lever & dual guide rollers for easy, simple, and versatile adjustment. The guide rollers gently rotate to achieve a smooth feel for consistent & reliable operation.
This unique & popular system has been faithfully reproduced for this 50th Anniversary Reissue model.
Originally made for Mastercraft snare drums, TAMA's One-Touch tone control was instantly praised for its innovative design. During a time when recording technology was in its infancy, acoustic sound & overtone control had to be done at the source. Though mutes were commonly found on many snare drums at the time, TAMA's simple and effective mechanism allowed for extremely subtle muffling adjustments and quick action within a single One-Touch on/off switch - a revolutionary advancement in design and function. Proving extremely useful even for drummers in the modern world, the One-Touch Tone Control is a timeless and elegant design.
Every detail of the Mastercraft Snare Drum Reissue was considered, even down to the stock drumheads. The batter side is fitted with a REMO® Coated Ambassador and the bottom side a REMO Ambassador Snare Side.
