Mapex 6x14" Wraith Matt Halpern Black Panther SnareBone dry, winter sharp; the ghost notes whisper while the backbeat wails. This drum will haunt you from beyond the gig. The 1. 2mm brass shell is perfect for all styles of playing and produces warm, dry tones at all volumes. The 6" depth is perfect for tuning to low pitches for that fat , open sound and as well as tuning high so those ear splitting rim shots. The 9 vents let the drum breathe and helps increase the response and the articulation.
