The answer is simple. Brass shells have been a favourite amongst drummers for many years due to their sound response and aesthetics. Unlike other shell materials brass offers an incredibly versatile and balanced sound with open highs mids and lows. Perfect for louder genres like rock and metal brass is renowned for being quite loud. Although loud you can just about use a brass snare in any style if you really want to cut through. High-quality hardware offer consistency The MasterCast Die-cast hoops have more density and are more consistent in shape than triple-flanged hoops which are manufactured by bending metal plates. These hoops make tuning more consistent and easier to achieve because the tension bolts always contact the hoop properly. Drums fitted with die-cast hoops also offer crisper attack clear and resonant highs and much more powerful rim shots. The Matt Halpern Signature Snare Drum is also fitted with black/brass swivel tube lugs. These lugs offer minimal contact and low mass. This allows the drums to vibrate freely for ultimate resonance. STL Lugs feature a swivel nut that keeps the tension rods perfectly aligned to provide accurate and precise tuning.
