The Tama Woodworks Snare Drum Model WP1465BK-NZW features a 14x6.5 inch (35.5x16.5 cm) poplar wood shell with an 8-ply construction and 8 mm thickness, delivering a warm sound character with a full-bodied tone and moderate responsiveness. This drum integrates matte black hardware, including MSL60S tension lugs, MUS65 throw-off mechanism, and triple-flanged steel hoops with 8 tension rods on each side for precise tuning control. The exterior showcases a Natural Zebrawood wrap finish with an artificial wood grain texture, providing an elegant visual presentation while maintaining a consistent appearance. The poplar wood construction ensures reliable durability and stable performance under various playing conditions, making this instrument suitable for practice sessions, studio recordings, and live performances where consistent sound quality is essential. The 6.5 inch (16.5 cm) depth offers balanced projection with clear articulation across dynamic ranges, while the 14 inch (35.5 cm) diameter ensures standard compatibility with most drum hardware setups. All components are designed to provide precise alignment and consistent tension distribution for reliable performance over extended use. The matte black coating on all metal components resists fingerprints and maintains its appearance under regular handling conditions. This snare drum represents Tama's commitment to high-quality craftsmanship in wood shell construction with attention to detail in both acoustic performance and visual presentation.
