The Viking
Inspired by the Viking sagas we bring you The Norseman snare drum. Boasting a 14x7 or 13x7, 17ply shell with alternating layers of oak and Scandinavian birch, The Norseman packs a powerful punch. Oak, favoured by Viking ship builders gives The Norseman a focused sound with excellent projection, whilst the birch layers native to Scandinavia maintain some warmth in its attack.
The grain pattern of the outer oak veneer is beautifully highlighted in blue, inspired by the blue dye used in traditional Viking tattoos. The inner oak veneer is equally beautiful and is adorned with custom wooden washers modelled on the twin battle axes that are synonymous with the vikings. 
Expertly cold-pressed and handcrafted, the 17-ply shell is exclusively crafted from 100% premium Scandinavian birch and Welsh oak. The shell is cross-laminated for optimal strength. Meticulously chosen inner and outer veneers highlight the stunning grain pattern which is further accented using blue dye, and is then finished with a natural wax to impart a subtle sheen.
Adorned with premium black hardware, this snare is offered in sizes 14x7 and 13x7, featuring double-ended tubee lugs and high-quality die-cast chrome rims.
The Norseman really is a statement both visually and sonically with the power to cut through even the heaviest of genres.
