TAMA Starclassic Performer Blacked Out Black Edition Snare Drum - 14 x 6.5 in. Flat Black

From its Flat Black finish to the deep black interior of the shell, the TAMA Starclassic Performer Blacked Out Black Edition snare drum takes the series in a distinctly monochromatic direction. This limited 14x6.5" snare pairs a 6 mm hybrid shell of 4-ply birch and 2 inner plies of maple with rounded 45-degree bearing edges and die-cast hoops. Matte black hardware, including 10 MSL-SCTMB lugs and an MLS30AMB throw-off, extends the blacked-out treatment across the drum, while an EVANS Black Chrome head completes the coordinated look. Available as a standalone counterpart to the matching Blacked Out Black Edition shell pack, this Starclassic Performer snare combines established hybrid-shell construction with one of the series' most visually distinctive treatments.

Maple/Birch Hybrid Shell With Rounded Bearing Edges

At the core of the Blacked Out Black Edition snare is Starclassic Performer hybrid-shell construction. The 6 mm shell combines 4 plies of birch with 2 inner plies of maple, bringing the two tonewoods together in a 6-ply design. Rounded 45-degree bearing edges define the contact point between the shell and drum heads, while die-cast hoops provide a substantial hardware complement to the hybrid shell. The 14x6.5" dimensions place these construction details in a versatile, familiar snare format without compromising the distinctive design that sets this limited model apart.

Blacked-Out Details Create a Unified Visual Identity

The Blacked Out Black Edition carries its monochromatic concept across virtually every visible element of the drum. The Flat Black exterior is complemented by a deep black finish inside the shell, while the die-cast hoops, 10 MSL-SCTMB lugs and MLS30AMB throw-off receive matching matte black treatments. Even the included EVANS Black Chrome head reinforces the aesthetic, creating a cohesive appearance from shell to hardware. Offered as a standalone companion to the matching kit, the TAMA Starclassic Performer Blacked Out Black Edition snare drum brings hybrid maple/birch construction and an all-black presentation together in a limited 14x6.5" design.
