Tama Starclassic Performer 14x6.5 Snare Drum – Hybrid Maple and Birch Construction

The Tama Starclassic Performer Snare Drum combines premium maple and birch in a hybrid shell design that delivers balanced tone and projection. The 6-ply construction—4 plies of birch with 2 inner plies of maple—creates a versatile voice: birch provides clarity and articulation while maple adds warmth and resonance. Paired with Evans heads and cast hoops, this snare produces a punchy, full-bodied crack that cuts through any mix.

Built for drummers who demand both performance and reliability, the Starclassic Performer features chrome hardware, precision-engineered lugs, and a high-gloss lacquer finish that combines durability with visual appeal. The adjustable MCS70 pickup system allows fine-tuning of snare response, making it suitable for studio work, live performance, and practice.
