[Features a machined steel rim! A used, top-of-the-line Yamaha steel snare drum from the 1980s, manufactured in Japan, has arrived!] ~SD-000 Series~ The SD-055M, which was manufactured until 1985, was one of the top-of-the-line models at the time. The snare drum plays a central role in a drum system. Yamaha placed particular emphasis on the sharpness of the sound and the quick attack of the snare drum. It features a seamless steel shell and a machined iron rim that provides extremely high rigidity. This allows for distortion-free operation even with high-pitched tuning, resulting in a tight, powerful sound unlike anything else. Furthermore, the strainer is a parallel action type that makes full contact and moves up and down simultaneously on both sides, allowing for fine adjustment of the snare wire tension from both sides. Because the snare wires do not interfere with the vibration of the bottom head, the stick rebound is excellent, allowing the drummer to express all aspects of their playing, from intricate phrases to hard shots, with clarity and precision.
