TAMA LGM146 S.L.P. 14"x6" G‑Maple Snare Drum – Kona Mappa Burl
Bright, Punchy Maple Tone with Stunning Visual Flair
The TAMA S.L.P. G‑Maple snare is designed for drummers who want clarity, projection and musical sensitivity wrapped in a visually striking shell. Built from a thick 11mm, 13‑ply maple shell (12 inner plies plus an outer Mappa Burl veneer), this 14"x6" snare delivers a bright, articulate tone with impressive volume and responsiveness. The Kona Mappa Burl finish adds boutique‑level elegance, making this drum look every bit as good as it sounds.
Resonant, Powerful and Full of Character
Maple’s natural balance of warmth and attack is enhanced by the drum’s thicker shell construction, allowing for punchy projection and a wide dynamic range. TAMA’s 2.3mm flanged Steel Mighty Hoops keep the drum open and resonant while reinforcing its sharp, articulate strike. Whether tuned high for crisp pop and funk or lower for rock and heavier styles, the G‑Maple responds confidently in any setting.
Premium Hardware Built for Performance
Finished with black‑nickel hardware and fitted with low‑mass MSL‑SCTBN lugs, this snare retains maximum shell resonance and reliable tuning stability. The "Linear‑Drive" strainer system (MLS50ABN/BBN) offers smooth, consistent snare engagement, while the MS20RL14C snare wires ensure crisp, controlled sensitivity. With Evans G1 coated and snare‑side heads, this snare is performance‑ready from the moment it’s unpacked.
