We love snare drums and make lots of them. We take pride in our ability to make everything from high quality “go to” snare, stave, and solid shells to our innovative R.A.D. Series snare drums. Our ply shell snare drums feature the same 100% choice North American hardwoods as our kits. All of our steam bent and stave drums are carefully crafted in house from the best hand selected timber.
This snare really shines in the studio, engineers love them. Not only because it sounds so good but, the design of the R.A.D. Series allowed for additional mic placement options.
Staves are constructed with the grain orientated vertically to the diameter, making it a more efficient transfer of energy. They are very sensitive and are beautiful drums for playing brushes and yet still have the ability to cut through loud music easily.
These snares have a wide range of possibilities, They have ply options from 7 to 15 plies and range in thickness from ¼” to ½” and the option of 8 or 10 lugs and die-cast hoops.
Brooks Drum Co. is a small boutique drum builder focused on meeting the specific needs of drummers who appreciate an elegant classic design. Our goal is a simple one, create the best drum we possibly can.
