Frequently Asked Questions
The Custom Classique snares have thicker shells, more refined hardware, and a deeper, more complex tone, but the Silver Series offers excellent value for the money.
Yes, the snare comes with Remo heads, and the standard 7/8” lug design allows for easy head replacement with any aftermarket brand.
The natural finish is sealed, but it’s still more porous than a lacquer finish, so I’d recommend wiping it down after each use to protect it.
