Noble & Cooley - Primitive Brass Snare Collection Limited Edition

This limited-edition 6.5” x 14” snare pairs an Ebenor 3mm cold rolled brass shell in a proprietary Primitive Brass finish with Noble & Cooley hardware and CamAction snare wires. Built in collaboration with Ebenor Percussion, the drum combines Canadian-built primitive brass artistry with Noble & Cooley precision and heritage.

At 18 lbs, this is a powerful, highly articulate instrument with striking visual character and exceptional sensitivity. Immediate and authoritative, the drum delivers a hard, defined crack with an aggressive transient that projects effortlessly at any tuning. The brass shell adds a sweet, harmonically rich tone with exceptional body, clarity, and depth, avoiding both the sharpness of steel and the dryness of copper.
