Description: This is a listing for a Yamaha 14 x 6.5" High-End 10-lug Chrome Snare Drum in *gorgeous* condition. This model was Yamaha's flagship snare drum at the time and was sold as an *upgrade option* to the legendary 9000-Series and Recording Custom kits of the day. The shell is entirely seamless and the snare strainer mechanism is unsurpassed.Note: Yamaha's 9000 and Recording Custom snare drums were rated *below* this version!"The '000' Series achieves uniform tensioning through the use of a parallel action release. The snare lever is easy to operate and both ends of the snare holder have fine tuning adjustment knobs." -- Yamaha 1980 Please check out the photo of the snare bed. The snares reach entirely across the head and tension at each end separately. If you've never owned a snare drum that allows full snare head coverage and adjustability of snare tension on both sides, you don't know what you're missing! The special snares on this drum are in excellent condition and replacement units are still available. *** It's an amazing drum with a GIANT sound. *** This is a stellar example of this 45-year-old vintage masterpiece. Sonically and functionally it's nothing short of amazing. If you want PHAT, with enormous control, this is how you get it.Note that I've upgraded the hoops to Yamaha Power Hoops for greater tuning stability. These hoops show their age just a tiny bit, but you have to examine them up very close to observe this. Please note the brand new Evans HD Dry batter head which sounds great on this drum. I've uploaded high resolution photos so you can zoom in and get a good look. Please make sure you do that. And please feel free to get in touch if you have questions or concerns. I want you to be totally happy with your purchase. Please check my feedback (100%) and purchase with complete confidence. Also, you can be sure your drum will be packed to survive anything and will be shipped *fast*!Thanks! -- Steve
