Each shell includes an interior-ply scarf joint that supplies added structural integrity to thin, musical shells. Like all USA-made Gretsch drums, shell interiors are finished with classic Gretsch Silver Sealer. The shell is hand finished with a roundover bearing edge, which allows greater surface contact between the bearing edge and drumhead. The result is tone that is incredibly deep, rich and warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBroadkaster toms and snare drums are outfitted with Gretsch’s “302” 3mm, double flanged steel hoops. These hoops are similar to “Stick Chopper” hoops used in the 1950s, but are constructed from a heavier gauge steel to stand up to today’s more assertive playing styles. The 302 hoop helps create a more open tone than a die-cast hoop and add ambient overtones to the overall tonal characteristic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShips free in the continental US\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrum may show stick marks from demoing in-shop.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gretsch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47408791421106,"sku":null,"price":935.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/6908\/8434\/files\/IMG_2351_2a3b226f-1c42-4359-8d51-c5953b14a4a2.jpg?v=1778617114","url":"https:\/\/woodandweatherdrumshop.com\/products\/gretsch-broadkaster-6-5x14-silver-glass-snare-drum","provider":"Wood \u0026 Weather Drum Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
