2020 Gretsch USA Custom Bell Brass Snare Sample

That Great Gretsch Sound … Bell brass snare drums are sought after for their smooth, pure timbre and controlled overtones, not to mention their powerful cut. The Gretsch 3.0mm cast bell brass shell shares the warm characteristics of wood with the powerful cut of a metal drum. Taylor Hawkins preferred snare - solid and projecting - all 20 lbs of it.
