Noble & Cooley Alloy Classic Snare Drum With Black Powder Hardware 14 x 6 in. Black

The Noble & Cooley alloy classic snare drum with black powder hardware isn’t just another snare—it’s an instrument with real personality. Its cast aluminum shell is poured, not rolled, creating a porous surface that gives it dense tone and textured response. Paired with a 45-degree bearing edge, it offers snap, articulation and a wide tuning range that lets drummers move from sharp crack to warmer resonance with ease.

Noble & Cooley Black Powder Nickel Hardware

Step up close and you’ll see the details that matter. Black nickel-over-brass hardware and 2.3 mm triple-flange hoops stabilize tuning through heavy playing, while also shaping resonance for rimshots and ghost notes that cut without unwanted ring. Matched with the black powder coat finish, the hardware gives the drum a unified look that feels at home in both modern and vintage kits.

A Noble & Cooley Snare Designed for Real Drummers

Every drummer wants a snare they can trust to react to their hands, and this one does. The alloy classic’s bearing edge and shell density sharpen stick definition and deliver dynamic control across volumes. From practice room to stage, its construction translates every stroke into clear, consistent sound—backbeats stay solid, accents cut, and the feel remains responsive in any setting.
