Tama M1412STSBK 14" x 12" Marching Snare Drum
Combining lightweight, durable construction with field-friendly features, TAMA’s Fieldstar Marching Snare drums offer a highly reliable solution for drumlines everywhere. A resilient maple shell, combined with magnesium edge rings, not only reduces weight but also maintains the snare's shape under competition-tension tunings for exceptional tonal quality and freedom of movement. Regardless of weather or temperature changes, the Fieldstar ensures consistent resonance, projection, and playing response, providing everything needed to excel in routines. Percussionists at Ted Brown Music appreciate the Fieldstar's convenient features such as the Buzz Killer Mutes and the detachable Gut Frame system, offering total control over sound and setup from start to finish.
Sound that reaches all corners of the field
The Fieldstar isn't just a follower but a leader in the pack, delivering sound that reaches every corner of the field. Three vent holes within the all-maple shell enhance projection, ensuring both the corps and audience never miss a beat. For routines requiring specific tones, the Gut Frame system allows individual gut tension adjustment, either separately or in unison, for a truly personalized sound. Additionally, TAMA’s Buzz Killer Mutes control gut sensitivity, allowing precise adjustment of rattle by positioning and securing them on the frame.
Jam-packed with convenience features
The Fieldstar not only sounds fantastic but also offers exceptional performance thanks to its stellar appointments. Easily switch between straight and angled playing positions with the adjustable snare drum holder. Snags and snare damage are minimized with the low-profile strainer and lightweight aluminum snare guards, providing extra security during performances and when placing the drum on the ground. The detachable and replaceable Gut Frame system allows for quick swapping of resonant heads without compromising tension settings, ensuring smooth transitions during routine adjustments.
