A Limited-Edition Hybrid Snare with Stunning Looks and a Powerful, Balanced Voice
The Tama WBSS65BB-VBF Starclassic Walnut/Birch 14" x 6.5" Snare Drum is a premium, limited-edition model crafted for drummers who demand both exceptional tone and standout visual appeal. This special release features a beautifully figured Vermillion Bosse FoncĂ© Fade outer veneer, finished in high-gloss lacquer and complemented by sleek black nickel hardware. It’s a snare designed to make an impression – both sonically and visually – on any stage or in any studio.
Hybrid Walnut/Birch Shell for Warmth, Clarity and Projection
Its 6-ply, 6 mm hybrid shell blends 4 plies of birch with 2 inner plies of walnut, creating the perfect fusion of warmth and precision. Birch provides crisp attack, projection and upper-frequency clarity, while walnut contributes rich, smooth low-end warmth and body. The 6.5" depth enhances overall resonance and punch, making this snare versatile enough for rock, fusion, pop, worship, studio recording and more.
Starclassic Hardware for Professional Control and Reliability
Equipped with 10-hole die-cast hoops, the snare offers exceptional tuning stability and controlled overtones with a focused rimshot sound. MSL-SCT Starclassic lugs maintain consistent tension, while the MCS70A/B snare throw-off ensures precise snare-wire engagement. The factory-fitted MS20RL14C snare wires deliver crisp response and controlled sensitivity, perfectly complementing the hybrid shell’s tonal profile.
High-Gloss Vermillion Bosse Foncé Fade Finish
The limited-edition Vermillion Bosse FoncĂ© Fade finish showcases a stunning outer veneer with a luxurious sense of depth. Combined with black nickel hardware, this model exudes modern elegance and premium craftsmanship – making it a centrepiece snare for any drummer’s collection.
