The Absolute Hybrid Series from Yamaha inherits the hybrid shell technology found on the flagship PHX Series. On Absolute Hybrid shells, the design consists of a core ply of wenge a very hard and heavy wood native to Africa, sandwiched between plies of maple, well known for its clear tone. This hybrid design delivers a drum tone that plays rich and clear across the full dynamic range, from pianissimo to fortissimo. A 45�º/R1.5 edge is used on this snare for a balanced tone.Hook lugs offer quick and easy head replacement, precision tuning, and can readily handle high-tension tuning. Lug bases are designed with a small footprint to maximize tone output from the hybrid shell. Aluminum die-cast hoops deliver a strong tight sound with an extraordinary attack and decay.ConfigurationSnare size: 14 x 6Total Pieces: 1ExtrasCase: not applicableStand: not applicableShellsShell material: BlendedShell construction: 6-PlyShell thickness (mm): 6.2Bearing edge: 45�ºReinforcement ring: NoHardwareHardware material: AluminumHoop type: Die-castLugs: PatentedThrow-off: SideInternal muffler: NoSnares: Info Not AvailableOtherHeads: FactoryFinish type: LacquerCountry of origin: China Drums & Percussion, Acoustic Drums, Snare Drums Yamaha J11471.001.003 AMS-1460RAU Yamaha, Snare Drums |
