Developed by Ricardo Parra, Noble \u0026amp; Cooley’s proprietary \"stave-bent\" shell combines vertical and horizontal grain structures within a single instrument. The upper and lower sections are crafted from authentic Buffalo Trace barrel staves, while the center section features a North American steam-bent maple shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEach construction method contributes distinct sonic qualities. The vertically oriented barrel staves provide projection, articulation, sensitivity, and immediacy, while the steam-bent maple center section adds warmth, body, sustain, and harmonic complexity. Rather than choosing one approach over the other, this design unites the strengths of both.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"100%\" class=\"mcnTextBlock\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\" class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\"\u003e\n\u003ctable align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"100%\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\" class=\"mcnTextContent\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a remarkably expressive snare drum with a crisp, articulate attack, exceptional sensitivity, and a rich, evolving voice. It delivers the projection and responsiveness of stave construction alongside the warmth and depth of a steam-bent shell. For players, it offers outstanding control and musicality. For producers, depth and tonal flexibility. For collectors, a truly limited instrument built from materials and a process that can never be replicated in exactly the same way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"100%\" class=\"mcnImageBlock\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd valign=\"top\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\"\u003e\n\u003ctable align=\"left\" width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"mcnImageContent\" valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Proprietary \"Stave-Bent\" Oak\/Maple shell designed by Ricardo Parra\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Curly maple reinforcement rings for tonal cohesion and structural stability\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Black nickel-plated brass tube lugs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Die Cast hoops in antique copper finish, inspired by the copper used in the distilling process\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• \"Rickhouse Relic\" finish capturing the character of aged oak barrels\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Co-branded antique copper badge and aged interior paper label\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable Sizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• 6x14\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• 7x14\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Noble \u0026 Cooley","offers":[{"title":"6” x 14”","offer_id":56711079231654,"sku":null,"price":2499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7” x 14”","offer_id":56711079264422,"sku":null,"price":2499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/9109\/6742\/files\/D7B2B6CB-BB4C-47B4-8D93-44DD30BC30C2.jpg?v=1782753157","url":"https:\/\/www.soundboxpr.com\/products\/noble-and-cooley-buffalo-trace-250th-anniversary-snare","provider":"SOUNDBOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
