This Sakae 6.5x14" brass snare with a black gloss finish has the same warm, melodious brass overtones and crisp crack as other famed black-over-brass snares, but while most manufacturers attempt to imitate the legendary Black Beauty, Sakae veers a little left of the fold. Their shell more closely resembles the Black Beauty's lesser-known, early competitor: the Leedy Professional Elite. A departure from traditional center beaded snares, Professional Elite models featured two inverted beads. These top and bottom channels act as reinforcement, providing extra strength and shell stability near the bearing edges. An interesting nod to history that produces a top-quality modern shell for a top-quality modern drum.
