The snare drum is the most important drum in your set. It is the most versatile and capable of producing more effects than the toms or bass drum. It is the drum in which you should invest the most money. That is not to say it has to be expensive.

8-lugs is an industry standard for snare drums. You can get a satisfactory sound from an 8-lug snare. If you want more control over the tuning and wish to get more tension on the head then a high-end 10-lug snare drum would be the drum to buy.

Superdrum, invented by jazz pro Dave Bedrosian, has taken this a step further by going to 12-lugs, an increase of 50% over the standard! Now it is possible to get even more control for amazing sound. The increase in lugs allows for unsurpassed accuracy and sensitivity with a very wide dynamic range. The 12-lug Superdrum produces excellent clarity at very soft and very loud playing levels.

All this has been accomplished at a fraction of the cost of what other drum makers have done. There is no need to spend $600, $700 even $1,000 or more to get this level of quality.

If your chops demand a drum that can produce exceptional sensitivity, clarity and dynamic range then the Superdrum is for you.
