Tama LBM1465Z-MZB S.L.P. 14" x 6.5" Snare Drum, Midnight Zebrawood Burst
A Limited-Edition Hybrid Snare with Exotic Looks and Powerful Tonal Depth
The Tama LBM1465Z-MZB S.L.P. Snare Drum is a striking limited-edition model that blends the depth of Bubinga, the bright musicality of maple and the visual drama of zebrawood. With its 14" x 6.5" dimensions, this snare offers a commanding low-end presence, rich sustain and articulate top-end snap – making it an exceptionally versatile instrument for drummers across genres.
Hybrid Bubinga/Maple Shell with Zebrawood Outer Ply
At the heart of this snare is a 7 mm shell constructed from 6 plies of Bubinga and 2 plies of maple, topped with an exotic zebrawood outer veneer. Bubinga provides dense, punchy lows and strong projection, while maple adds upper-frequency clarity and warmth. This hybrid design creates a beautifully balanced voice – deep, resonant and articulate – perfect for both studio and live performance.
Sound Arc Hoops for Sharp Attack and Open Resonance
Equipped with 2.3 mm Sound Arc Hoops (10-hole), the drum delivers a comfortable playing feel with crisp rimshot response. Their gently curved profile enhances stick rebound and maintains natural resonance while keeping overtones controlled. Combined with MCHL5S lugs, tuning remains stable and predictable under any playing intensity.
Premium Hardware for Precision and Sensitivity
The snare features Tama’s MLS50A/B Linear-Drive strainer, offering smooth, precise snare-wire engagement and quick adjustments. The 20-strand Starclassic Hi-Carbon Steel snare wires (MS20SN14C) provide crisp articulation with excellent dynamic sensitivity. Factory-fitted Evans G1 Coated and Evans Snare Side heads give the drum a balanced, ready-to-play voice straight out of the box.
Midnight Zebrawood Burst Finish for a Boutique Look
The Midnight Zebrawood Burst lacquer showcases the dramatic zebrawood grain, enhanced by deep, rich shading that creates a premium, boutique appearance. This finish makes the snare an instant visual centrepiece on any kit.
