Quilted Ash gives this 6.5 x 14 stave snare a clear, energetic attack with an open hardwood character and strong projection. The 3/8-inch shell provides focus, while the 6.5-inch depth adds body beneath the initial strike. An eight-lug configuration gives the drum a slightly more open tuning feel, creating a responsive main-snare voice that can remain present in both live and recorded mixes.
The rare quilted figure creates a three-dimensional grain pattern across the shell. A deep-red dye intensifies that movement beneath a high-gloss finish, while Custom Antique Brushed Black Nickel hardware provides a darker visual boundary. Black Camo Carbon Fiber inlays continue the contrast through the medium spear-point lugs and port hole. Each Royalton lug is CNC-milled from solid aircraft-grade aluminum. Handcrafted in the USA as a one-of-one Royalton instrument.

Sonic Profile
-
Attack
Clear, energetic, and pronounced. The 3/8" stave construction and 20-strand wires provide a quick, focused transient, while the roundover edge fattens the initial strike for strong projection.
-
Tone
Bright, projective, and energetic. It delivers a lively hardwood voice with a full supporting body that cuts easily through live and recorded mixes.
-
Sustain
Open and full. The 8-lug configuration allows the 6.5-inch deep shell to breathe and resonate more freely than a standard 10-lug design, while the roundover edges naturally tame harsh high-frequency overtones for a lively but controlled decay.
