Yamaha Roy Haynes Snare

Signature Snare Drums - 14in x 5 1/2in Roy Haynes Signature Model - SD655RH

The Sound of Jazz Great Roy Haynes is Embodied in this Copper Snare Drum.

Hand Hammered Copper Shell
The Copper shell produces deep, dark low end and is highly responsive. The hand hammered finish on the Roy Haynes model creates a deeper tone with more sensitivity than previous copper shells.

DynaHoop
The 2.3mm thick steel hoop enhances the copper shell's tone with tightness and sharpness.

Small Lugs
To get the most sound out of the shell possible, small lugs are incorporated due to their minimum lug to shell contact. Bolts attach to a precision-machined lug nut inside the casing for superior performance.

Internal Mute
At Roy's request, we revived the internal mute that used to be standard equipment on the snare drum. Muting of the head is quick and easy while providing subtle control over the sound.

25 Strand Snare
Roy's ideas also resulted in the wider Hi-carbon Steel snare that has 5 more strands than a standard snare. This design produces a heavy, yet delicate sound the feels quite comfortable.
