An exact replica of the famous Gladstone Snare Drum™

and include these original yet innovative features:
Three Way Tuning :
Adjustments are made from the top of the drum with a
special three way tuning key which permanently mounts on the shell. Tune top head
alone, bottom head alone or both heads at the same time without taking the
drum off the stand.
Throw-off:
The snare strainer flips off with out any noise since there are no springs or rods to malfunction.
