Made in Japan 14″ x 5.5″ Yamaha Blue Sparkle Maple Custom Absolute Snare in mint to excellent condition. This drum is gorgeous! The bearing edges are perfect, lacquer finish has no scratches or markings, and the chrome hardware is clean and functional. The drum has triple flange hoops instead of the stock die cast. The maple custom absolute line is no longer made in Japan, making this one a little more special than today’s models. I hate to let this one go but I have too many snares and need to let some go. Snare has very limited playing time and was kept in a smoke free home until I put it in temperature controlled storage. The pictured hard case is not included in this sale. Please message with any questions.
