Gretsch Drums Ash Soan Signature Snare Drum 12 x 7 in. Gloss Lacquered Purpleheart

Ash Soan is one of today's most in-demand drummers and Gretsch was excited to create the Ash Soan signature snare drum together. Ash's super eclectic work calls for a snare of unparalleled versatility and that is precisely what this is. Working at his historic Windmill Recording Studio there are a variety of sonic goals and this unique drum provides everything he needs to meet the needs of his clients. This 12�� Purpleheart snare drum has already been heard on several recordings and Instagram videos, and many drummers have asked him about it. This breakthrough drum starts with a 9-ply 12x7�� Purpleheart shell finished in clear gloss lacquer. Its double 45-degree bearing edges significantly increase the attack, creating an ultra-cutting crack. Additional features based on Ash's specs include 4mm die cast hoops and classic Lightning throw-off. Each snare has an inside identification label specifying the year of production and each is signed by Ash himself.
