The Paradigm Maple Classic Snares are a prime choice for lovers of old sounds.  Like all Paradigm snares, they are extremely sensitive.  These shells create a thick sound that splits the difference between crack and thump.  See below for available sizes and prices.

Sound sample coming soon!

Paradigm Maple Snares can be built in a range of thicknesses to suit your taste.  8-ply, 10-ply, or 15-ply shells create different amounts of snap, crackle, and pop.  10-ply shells make outstanding middle-of-the-road snares.  8-ply snares have a mellower sound.  15-ply snares crack like a gunshot.  Whatever floats your boat. Maple snares are available in a wide range of sizes and finshes.  See below for prices.  If you don’t see the size you want below, email me for a price quote.

Paradigm Single-Ply Snares are built from steambent shells.  A single piece of wood is bent to form the shell, rather than multiple thin plies glued together.  These drums have a solid, woody sound that highlights the natural tonal characteristics of whatever wood  is used.  The shells are available in a wide range of domestic and exotic wood species.  These are exceptional instruments, handcrafted from start to finish.  Finish options vary by species of wood.  Prices vary.  Email for a quote.

The Paradigm Mahogany Classic Series Snares are built from the same Keller mahogany/poplar blend shells as the Mahogany Classic Series drumsets.  Their sound is mellow but beefy.  In a word, fat.  These drums maintain their body across a wide tuning range.  See below for available sizes and prices.
