Edgevent Snares

These unique snare drums feature a "shell within a shell" design.  The outer 100% 8-ply Maple shell holds all the parts (lugs, strainer, butt, etc) and also has outside holes for venting.  The inner 100% Maple shell has no holes and no parts attached, so it resonates independently from the outer shell.  Both top and bottom bearing edges also have vent holes.  These "edgevents" work with the outer shell vents, creating a unique voice that translates into a fat, warm sound with excellent attack and sustain.  This drum has a truly different look and sound that is  worthy of the Spaun name.
