GMS 6.5"x14" 25th Anniversary Model Snare Drum
The folks over at GMS wanted to do something special for their 25th anniversary. This particular something would have to reflect the hard work, innovative thinking, and commitment to excellence that has made them one of most respected drum manufacturers in the business. Something that is classic and timeless while still showing GMS’ love for innovation and newer technologies. The result was the 6.5”x14” 25th Anniversary Model Snare Drum.
This snare incorporates some of the more distinctive features of both their “Revolution” and “Perimeter Venting System” snare drums. It has an 8-ply maple shell with 8-ply reinforcement hoops and an interior coating of Revolution Brass. The brass helps give this drum a crisp, sharp sound that is bright and articulate while the maple shell provides a fat, warm, resonance that’s often missing in “metal only” drums. This drum also has a Nickel-Steel exterior coating to not only give it a sleek look, but added projection.
This drum also incorporates the “Perimeter Venting System” where 10 small holes are drilled through the bottom bearing edge and then vented out the side of the shell for maximum impact and sensitivity. This creates a drum that is perfect for all styles of play. From heavy back beats to the lighter touch of jazz, this drum can do it all.
Some of the other cool features included are 2.3mm triple-flange hoops, SE snare lugs with GMS swivel inserts, Grand Master brass throw off, and Evans drumheads. The first 25 drums will also be signed by the company’s founders Tony Gallino and Rob Mazzella. In addition to this they will number the first 25 drums by each year GMS has been in business. For example the first drum will be 1987, the second 1988, and so on and so forth.
