This Gretsch snare's maple hoops will give the full range of tones you deserve.
This Gretsch Full Range snare drum with wood hoop features a 10-ply all-maple shell with 30° bearing edges. Both the batter and resonant wood hoops are contoured to enhance the
fundamentally warm and open wood tones.
The Gretsch Full Range snare's resonant-side hoops have notches at the throw-off and butt-plate positions, which allows the throw-off mechanism to fully engage and disengage with ease. The batter-side hoop is also notched to allow easy access to the throw-off lever. A Gretsch drop-style throw-off augments the functionality and visual appeal of the Full Range snare drum.
