Here we have one of the new Carl Palmer beaded brass Venus snare drums.
Carl Palmer's "Venus" Signature Snare - A truly personalised instrument, Carl's "Venus" is crafted for volume and intricate clarity. Its beaded-brass 14 x 3.7 shell is lacquered green for a stunning look, with brass-plated separate-tension tube lugs and die-cast hoops to offer visual contrast. More than a "Power-Piccolo", each model is hand-signed by Carl Palmer himself.
Carl says that he has spec’d the drum with locking nuts specifically for heavy hitters to ensure the drum maintains tuning, he also recommends that drummers looking to replicate his sound should change the batter head to a Remo Vintage Emperor coated though the drum ships with a Ludwig factory coated head.
This is a stunning looking drum with a very powerful sound.
