The Slingerland Radio King Artist Snare puts handcrafted quality into a series that produces striking performance. Made in Oxnard, California, this snare features a 3-ply Mahogany-Poplar-Mahogany formula shell with a 100% Maple re-ring and a 30-degree bearing edge for punchy attack with buttery feel and warm tonality. The Nickel-plated hardware includes the re-tooled, lever and knob-style Zoomatic throw-off for smooth snare adjustments, alongside Stick Saver hoops, Streamline lugs, and 20-strand wires.
