Here we have a Sia Blackheart solid stave shell snare drum. For any one who doesn't know Sia yet, these drums are hand crafted by Sia Seysan out in New South Wales, Australia. Matt Parr is the man responsible for bringing them to UK shores.
The attention to detail on the drums is flawless and the drums come well appointed with high quality hardware components, heads and wires. Coming from Australia, featuring many hard woods indigenous to the area and being built using stave construction these drums are very similar to the old Brady Block snare drums, there is great volume, impressive mid range tone and plenty of tuning range. All Sia drums have a rock solid construction and are signed and dated inside.
13 X 7 BLACKHEART
13 x 7 is such a great snare size, don't confuse this size with typical piccolo's and sopranos this size particularly in this spec can rock with the best of them, the versatility is there for any genre. The Blackheart shell delivers a beautiful depth of tone particularly in the middle of the tuning spectrum giving this drum a controlled warmth with little in the way of unwanted overtones perfect for live and the studio.
