Engineered with precision, the Ply-Maple Multisonic Snare Drum features a rounded bearing edge with an inner 45-degree angle, minimizing contact with both the batter and snare side heads for enhanced projection and clarity.

This maintains a consistent contact with the snare side head allowing each cable type to activate at the appropriate dynamic range.
