Mapex MPX Steel Snare Drum - 6.5-inch x 14-inch

When you want bright, cutting attack with serious projection, steel is the way to go. The Mapex MPX Steel snare features a 1.0mm steel shell that speaks with pinpoint accuracy and a full sustain that carries across the stage. The 6.5" depth gives it enough body to avoid sounding thin, balancing the metallic brightness with a satisfying low-end punch.

The lightweight 1.3mm triple-flanged hoops are stick-friendly, and the fully adjustable throw-off lets you fine-tune your snare response. Whether you're playing rock, funk, gospel, or marching percussion, a good steel snare is one of the most versatile drums you can own — and the MPX makes that accessible without cutting corners on sound.
