Key Features
The Premier XPK Exclusive 14'' x 6.5'' Birch Snare Drum provides a fantastic sound at an accessible price. Ideal for a broad range of musical styles, the snares' 7.5mm, 6-ply all-birch construction offers incredible punch and projection with a boosted top-end for additional presence, as well as a slight midrange reduction to avoid harshness, all whilst retaining Premier's natural tone.
The shell's 6.5'' depth responds well to high tunings, emitting a sharp attack when struck that will cut through the densest or arrangements. Sporting a black ash satin finish, the 14'' x 6.5'' birch snare features many premium components not featured in snares at this price point, including low mass lugs and 1.5mm triple flange steel hoops that offer an increase in resonance as well as the iconic Premier logo.

The Premier XPK Exclusive 14'' x 6.5'' Birch Snare Drum is equally comfortable on-the-stage as it is in the rehearsal room and the recording studio. Birch shells are easy to identify due to their bright, articulate sound. Packed full of ''weight'' and ''punch'', they are significantly ''fatter'' and offer superior projection compared to maple shells.
Although bright, birch shells ensure a smooth well-balanced tone, providing adequate low-end. The sound of the snare is enhanced by the inclusion of low-mass XPK lugs and 1.5mm triple-flanged hoops. These features work in unison to increase the shell's sustain, making them an ideal choice for both live performances and studio recording, particularly for Pop, Rock and heavier music styles.
