Balancing the warm and musically vibrant sound of solid brass with the distinct look of black chrome plating, Pork Pie's Little Squealer series Big Black Brass snare drum (also called the Black Nickel over Brass or BOB snare) offers both a distinct look and sound to your kit. It's a standout from the rest of the Little Squealer series, featuring chrome-plated tube lugs, rather than the hourglass lugs common to the rest of the series. The Big Black Brass snare also includes the 2.3mm hoops and custom snare wires that drummers love about Pork Pie's other brass drums, providing you with the kind of expressive articulation you won't typically find in an "off the shelf" instrument.
