	Solid Snare Drums Chris Brady crafted the world’s first Solid Wood Snare Drum in the early 1980’s when it was not considered possible. There was no join, no seam, no glue – literally a solid section of tree hollowed out using an axe, a chainsaw, a chisel and finally a lathe, then drilled and fitted. A true work of art - of which the original handful from the early 80’s quickly snapped up by the likes of Jeff Porcaro and Trilok Gurtu are still performing at their best; proof of the enduring qualities of these one-of-a-kind pieces.		“The Ark of the Covenant” (quote from the late Jeff Porcaro) These exceptional sounding drums are extremely rare and are produced in limited numbers from Jarrah (Eucalyptus Marginata) and Wandoo (Eucalyptus Wandoo) beginning with the felling of the tree. Each drum is built in direct collaboration between the player and Chris Brady himself. They are available in 10", 12", 13" and 14" diameter – and in depths up to 8", and come standard with a high-gloss finish and 24K gold plated hardware. Like our Block drums, Solid Wood snares are only offered in their respective natural beauty (i.e. our exotic Ply Shell timber finishes are not applicable), and are guaranteed for life to never go out of round.
