To commemorate its 20th anniversary, GMS Drum Co. has created a very special limited-edition snare drum. Just like five years ago the drum manufacturer has made a special snare drum series to celebrate another five years of company succes.

The GMS 20th Anniversary Snare Drum features a nine-ply ash shell comprised of eight plies of North American white Ash with an outer ply of highly figured North American olive ash burl.
Eight-ply North American maple retainer rings are beveled on both upper and lower edges to mellow sonic reflection inside the shell.
The Anniversary Snare Drum is fitted with eight lugs, giving it a warmer tone and slightly softer feel than today’s standard ten-lug models. The vent hole repositioned gives the drum a fatter sound, balancing the significant high-end cut delivered by the nine-plus-eight ply configuration.
Finishing touches include GMS’s new Special Edition snare drum lugs and classy 20th anniversary logo embedded in the lacquer.
Orders for the limited-edition GMS 20th Anniversary Snare Drum will be taken through 2007.
