The TAMA King Beat chrome steel snare is a high quality drum, known for its powerful, crisp, and bright tone. Released during the heyday of hard rock, it features a seamless shell, die-cast hoops for tuning stability and a smooth, reliable snare strainer. This drum is in excellent condition – strainer and internal muffler operate smoothly and don’t rattle. There’s a trace pitting, primarily on the strainer, not the shell, with one superficial scratch on the shell, as shown. This is a super sensitive snare with a serious “crack” when desired. The batter head is an Evans Level 360 blue hydraulic.

Tama Imperialstar King Beat snare drum from 1980’s. With Parallel Strainer snare system. In very clean conditions with pitting and scratches on the shell and die cast hoops. Please note that there is one of the lugs hardware that is just attached from the top and bottom lugs, it is not attached to the shell, this is not affecting the functionality of the snare but I just want to be honest and clear with you.. The pitting is all over the snare, please be aware, and hard to spot from a medium distance, you will need to be very close to the snare to be able to see the pitting. It is a very clean snare example from a parallel snare system King Beat. It sound very nice, the top head is a Remo power stroke P77 coated. Almost new barely played. The Vintage 80’s Tama parallel strainer system King Beat Steel Snare Drum from Japan is a classic piece of musical equipment perfect for drummers looking for a high-quality snare drum. With a 14-inch diameter and made of steel, this snare drum produces a powerful and crisp sound ideal for adding depth to any drum set. The Tama brand is known for its durability and innovative designs, making this snare drum a reliable choice for both beginners and experienced musicians.
