SONOR SSD 14x5,25 GH STANDARD Gavin Harrison "Protean" Signature Snare Drums
Snare Drum | Product code:
HN135792
Introducing Gavin Harrison, drummer of bands like Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, OSI, Blackfield or Fjieri, is probably unnecessary. In 2011, he collaborated with Sonor to produce a snare drum that bears the Protean name, a drum with tremendous versatility that makes it perfect for any genre in the rehearsal room, live or in the studio.
These drums are, of course, handmade in Germany, and are 6-ply select birch plywood, 6 millimeters thick in total. On the top side their edge is round, similar to the vintage models from the 70s, the bottom side is beveled to a "modern" 45 degrees. Relatively "vintage" Phonic shells and the popular S-Hoops hoops are used.
Of course, the Dual Glide Snare system is used for string tension and control. The Protean includes special stringers developed specifically for Harrison - the standard model is the Straight 8 with 8 steel strings.
Remo USA CS (playable, sand, center target) and Sonor Medium (resonant) strings are factory stretched. Included are 3 different damping rings that are designed for optimal behavior in conjunction with S-Hoops. Two special tuning keys are also supplied as accessories.
