Awesome value for money.

Sean Wong 04.11.2018

Yamaha has once again built an outstanding piece of musical instrument in accordance with their pristine standard of quality and affordability. This snare can be tuned loose or tight depending on the musical requirements. A looser tuning gives a fat big beat kinda sound while the tighter tuning gives a crack that can only be achieved with a brass snare. The only downside is that not every drumhead sounds good on it. I'm personally using a Powerstroke 77 on the top and it's my go-to now. Good job Yamaha!

Very warm, clear and rich tone! Easy to tune.

Great all around snare

KaroDeLina 07.11.2023

This snare sounds great on lower and on higher tunings, is great for recording and has an awesome sound for lower volume playing and for heavy rimshots.
I play mostly heavier music and the only problem I have had with it is detuning of the 2 bottom lugs bellow the place I hit the rimshots, but I have had this problem with every snare so far so I am not surprised.
I have used the snare with the ambassador coated and CS black dot heads and both sounded great.

This is everything that I ever wanted in a snare drum! The look is great, amazing build quality (as expected from Yamaha) and the sound is the stuff of dreams. I also really like the throwoff, its fast and feels really steady.

Pros:
Well, everything.

Cons:
It ain't cheap
A lot of horsepower, could be a problem in small rooms.
