The Gretsch 8x14” Mahogany/Maple Snare Drum delivers a commanding, fat backbeat with rich low-end depth. Built from a 16-ply shell that layers mahogany and maple (4 mahogany | 8 maple | 4 mahogany), this snare combines the warmth and darkness of mahogany with the clarity and punch of maple.
With its softer 30º bearing edges, the 8x14” favors body and resonance over sharp attack, producing a darker, rounder tone that’s full of weight and character. It’s ideal for players who want a snare that fills the mix with power while maintaining a smooth, warm response.
Finished in a high-gloss lacquer, this drum is fitted with Tilco manganese steel snare wires, 2.5mm triple flange hoops, and Gretsch’s newly designed Full Range Throw Off & Butt Plate, ensuring both reliability and premium sound.
