A&F Raw Copper snare drums possess the heirloom good looks and timeless musicality of a mid-century classic — complete with aged hardware and old-world construction methods. The 5" x 14" Raw Copper Snare is handcrafted from a single sheet of orchestral-grade copper and crowned with traditional single-flanged brass hoops to deliver unmatched speed, bloom, sensitivity, and maturity. Hand-formed bearing edges and snare beds optimize head and snare response to meet the demands of modern players. A&F's Patented Patina hardware — which includes center-mounted dual-sided lugs and aged tension screws and clips — along with a set of A&F-branded Remo heads round out this one-of-a-kind work of art
