The 1mm steel shell provides an all-purpose tone with a clear sound across all tuning ranges. Although they are well-suited to heavier music, due to their high-power sound, they are also very popular in other styles of music. Reggae drummers, for example, often use steel snares due to their bright, cutting sound qualities.
Steel shells stand out due to their incredibly bright tone, long sustain and powerful rim shot sounds. They are also more responsive than most wood shell snare drums, making them incredibly responsive to even the lightest of hits. If you're looking for a snare drum that will cut through loud music or stand its ground on a busy stage, the steel shell is for you.
