Tama began manufacturing drums in 1965 under the name "Star Drums", and Star continues to be used in the names of Tama's drum models to this day. Tama were one of the first manufacturers to offer super heavy-duty hardware, and drum mounting systems that did not intrude into the shell.Tama's drums and hardware are world renowned as among the best available. The Sound Lab Project (SLP) series was created to give drummers a wide range of distinctive snare sounds at a great price. The SLP Fat Spruce Snare Drum features an 8-ply, 7mm spruce shell with a beautiful wood grain finish, eight brass tube lugs, and super-sensitive, high-carbon snares. This versatile drum is in a class of its own, producing a warm and reasonant tone that is suitable to a variety of playing styles and genres.The spruce shell and 8-lug die-cast hoops securely cradle the Evans head and give this snare a wide, broad report, with warm yet powerful rim shots.
