Tama Metalworks 14x5.5 Steel Snare Drum – Matte Black (BST1455BK)

The Tama Metalworks BST1455BK is a 14" x 5.5" steel snare built for a bright, crisp response at higher tunings and a smooth, controlled resonance when tuned lower. The matte black shell and matching black hardware give it a clean, modern look, while the reinforced centre ridge helps keep the shell solid and consistent under tension.

Key Features
