Brady 16x6.5 Jarrah Ply Snare Drum Natural Gloss Finish
Item: BDJP1665JNG
Brady is the only company of its kind, able to
produce small quantities of their own ply shells in a revolutionary new
method pioneered by Chris Brady in 1988. The shells are made in a dry
mould system, excluding the introduction of water into the shells,
unlike conventional steam-bending techniques. The use of special epoxy
resins makes reinforcement hoops and other stability measures
unnecessary in a Brady shell, while guaranteeing that they never go
out-of-round.
Brady only uses individual Select Grade plies of
Jarrah and Marri timber. These are unique hardwoods indigenous to
Western Australia and are much harder than rock maple with outstanding
acoustic properties. The drum is pressed in a straight grain method with
all timber grain running in the same horizontal direction around the
drum shell (not cross-laminated). This approach enables the timber to
resonate freely, resulting in a sound similar to a solid shell,
previously unknown in ply construction.
This is a world first and has not been copied by
other manufacturers, primarily because mass production is not
possible using this technology.
Countless international artists regard Brady Ply
Drums as most treasured items, ever since their initial release into the
drumming community.
