Canopus Type-R Maple Snare Drum
In today’s rock drum sound, role of the snare drum can be seen like the engine in a car – to move the music forward, and to provide a definitive backbeat for the band.
We applied an extremely accurate bearing edge to an 8mm American Maple shell to bring out the maximum power and projection. We have also applied acrylic lacquer to make the sound more solid.
By making it with 10 lugs, we managed to produce a shorter shell vibration – giving a tight, sharp sound.
We used Red Lock (CLT-4), to ensure that the tension bolts do not loosen.

We used Red Lock (CLT-4), to ensure that the tension bolts do not loosen.Additionally, we have decided to use Japanese made ASPR drum heads rather than regular Remo USA heads. ASPR drum heads provide more directivity and give greater character in the mid to high frequency ranges.
