TAMA PBR146 Starphonic Brass 14"x6" Snare Drum
A Warm, Resonant Brass Snare with Outstanding Projection
The TAMA PBR146 Starphonic Brass 14"x6" Snare Drum delivers a bold, musical voice built around a 1.2mm brass shell that offers both warmth and powerful projection. Thicker than many traditional brass shells, its construction gives the snare a rich, full-bodied character while enhancing low-mid presence and articulation. Whether tuned high for a cracking backbeat or low for meaty punch, this drum adapts effortlessly to any musical context.
Starphonic Precision Meets Classic Brass Tone
The PBR146 is equipped with TAMA’s renowned Grooved Hoops, designed to provide a sharp attack, cleaner rimshots and controlled overtone behaviour. The Freedom Lug & Claw Hook system enables fast, tool-free head changes, while the Super Sensitive Hi-Carbon Snappy Snare wires ensure crisp, responsive snare definition. With its Linear-Drive strainer, detachable butt plate and ratchet-style tension adjuster, this snare offers top-tier control and reliability for demanding studio and live performance environments.
