Tama Star Oiled Natural Mahogany 14 x 6-inch snare drum
The use of mahogany guarantees a warm, bright sound, while some redesigned features give this snare drum’s sound and looks an elegant touch. In designing the TLH146S, Tama wanted to create a snare drum that offered just a bit more articulation than other snares in their STAR series. And just like the maple version, this drum turned out to be another product that Tama can proudly release into the wild.

Snappy
The Super Sensitive Hi-carbon Steel Snappy Snare wires have a specially designed plate and a revised winding pattern for the wire coils, resulting in a remarkably crisp snare sound. The Linear-Drive Strainer was designed to give you more precise control over the lever and to smooth out the strainer’s deployment motion. This way, you won’t hear the slap of the snares hitting the bottom head, even if you rapidly engage the strainer. Furthermore, to prevent the snare wires from loosening, the strainer is equipped with a ratchet system. This allows you to perform small, single-click adjustments to the tension of the wires, allowing you to fine-tune your sound!

Lugs
Even the lugs have been redesigned – they now feature a bridge construction and make minimal contact with the shells. As a result, the drum’s resonance is optimised while its overall weight is reduced significantly. Finally, the Tama TLH146S snare drum features three air holes, as opposed to the single air hole that most toms, floor toms and bass drums have. These extra holes in the shell allow the snare to produce a much brighter and drier sound that projects evenly in all directions. It’s a top quality snare drum that lives up to the highest of Tama’s standards!
