Many people said good thing about the snare's hardware and that's all true. But the sound! If there is one snare sound I would call fat, that's the one. The soft wood must do the magic on this one. I tune it medium and it sounds beefy and full. Fat is probably the best word. Overtones are very pleasant and minimal if you hit in the middle. Rim shot is powerful, funky and woody. I have a couple more SLP snares, and all of them are great, but this one is my favorite. Just have to be careful with the shell, very soft and easy to scratch. Maybe that's one thing that Tama should do, is put a harder and thicker clear coat on it.

I own several Tama S.L.P. snare drums, and love them all, but this one caught my ear by surprise. The Fat Spruce can be tuned up quite high without choking. It has a fat, warm, woody and throaty bark with a hard rim shot, while still remaining responsive to ghost and grace notes from the centre to the edge of the drum. It's much louder than I expected and could be called "dynamic / fat" spruce. It's both! The wood grain satin finish is beautiful. It reminds me a bit of stained plywood, but the 8 tube lugs allow more space between lugs to show off the grain, giving it a classy, vintage look. The die cast hoops alone are worth more than half of the sale price. I prefer the linear drive throw off on this drum to the flip throw offs used on the metal shell S.L.P. snares...smoother, quieter and adjustable from both sides. The bearing edges on my drum are just OK, probably due to the softer spruce wood shell, but the drum tunes up great and sounds awesome with the stock heads. Give it a listen before you buy and I think you'll be impressed, then grab one of these on sale before they're gone! Thanks to Darren at the Waterloo store for his usual excellent customer service!

I've had this snare for almost 2 years now, and i must say it's a quality drum. The lugs are smooth, and the throw-off system is smooth too. Plus you can adjust the snares from both sides of the drum, instead of just one side like with most snares. Sounds great too of course.

I've owned many snare drums over the years and this is perhaps one of the best I have owned. The snare looks great and boasts many features such as Dual snare strainers and higher-end snare wires. The snare is surprisingly light and looks great. I've got the factory heads on mine and the sound is incredible. I've tuned the drum fairly high and I get a really loud pop from the drum. This is one of the loudest drums I have played. I got mine on sale and I have to say for the price paid you can't go wrong.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
