Sonor Artist Series 14" x 6" Maple Snare Drum – Cottonwood Satin

The Sonor Artist Series 14" x 6" Maple Snare Drum is a pinnacle of German craftsmanship, born from a collaboration between Sonor and some of the world’s top drummers. Built in Germany to exacting standards, this snare features a 9-ply, 6 mm maple shell that delivers a warm, full-bodied tone with excellent projection and dynamic response.

The 14" x 6" dimensions provide an ideal balance of crack, punch, and tonal depth—perfect for cutting through dense mixes while maintaining subtle articulation. The drum is fitted with stainless steel snare wires for sensitive response, allowing expressive play across a wide range of styles and dynamics.

A stunning satin Cottonwood outer ply gives this snare a refined, boutique appearance, enhanced by chrome-plated hardware. Sonor’s signature TuneSafe lug system ensures rock-solid tuning stability, even in demanding performance conditions.
