Want to give a huge shout-out to Herb Sommer and Old Saratoga Drums, this 13 x 8 zebrawood snare drum not only looks beautiful. Sounds incredible, but it looks great with my Slovenian bone drums kit.. thanks again Herb you do amazing work.

I told OSSD exactly what I was looking for in a snare drum. Something with some depth but a really high-pitched crack and he came at me with a 13×8 Yellow Heart snare. I am completely in love with it. It’s exactly the sound I wanted. The craftsmanship is amazing!
I play a lot of different genres of music, and this drum is so versatile with the three-position Trick throw-off. I can make it crack or loosen the strainers for a fat backbeat.
Thank you Herb for your expertise and awesome woodworking. A great company to deal with.
