The Fame Copper Snare Drum FSC-50 in 14"x5" is a professional copper snare with solid cast iron hoops. The 1.2 mm thin shell produces a crisp, voluminous sound with dark projection. The sound of the Fame Snare is characterized by an earthy tone with a lot of bass and warmth. Even with a high tuning, the copper shell sounds much warmer and more woody than a brass or steel shell, for example. The full-bodied sound is again focused by the two cast iron hoops. 10 tuning rods on each side and high-quality heads keep the tone of the drum constant and tuning stable. The throw-off runs soft as butter and promises a good tonal control.
The Fame Copper Snare Drum FSC-50 has a full, earthy and warm sound, thanks to the 1.2mm thin copper shell. The voluminous sound is characterized by a woody and full-bodied tone, which does not produce many overtones, unlike a drum shell from brass or steel for example.
The complete 14"x5" shell of the Fame FSC-50 Snare-Drum as well as all shell hardware has a brushed copper surface. Also the snare throw-off, the hoop and the bridge style lugs are refined in this way. This gives the high-quality Fame Snare a completely unique look that clearly sets it apart from other instruments in this price range. The solid cast iron hoops focus the sound in combination with the 10 bridge-style lugs and the snare wire can be sensitively adjusted. The Fame FSC-50 snare is very tuning stable and constant in tone.
Solid drum at this pricepoint. I upgraded it with evans genera dry batterhead and puresound equalizer snare wires and im happy with sound! Works well with different tunings from high to low. Drum is very sensitive. Good all around snaredrum.
