7 plies of 100% premium birch using Taye's EFS™ technology creating a beautiful sound with plenty of attack. Taye Wood Hoops consist of 14-ply genuine North American Sugar Maple using proprietary construction under high pressure and precisely controlled temperature to ensure its strength and integrity. Each Wood Hoop is handcrafted with 10-degree top bevel for optimal stick contact on cross stick or rim shot, 45-degree internal chamfer for optimal drum head seating, and internal channel that captures drum head flesh hoop for proper alignment. Resonating effect of the 14-ply Wood Hoop is further balanced by the newly engineered articulated claws with resonance control spacers. The result is a snare drum that is stunningly beautiful in appearance as the sound it projects with every stick contact.

Wood Hoops are also available in Black Gloss Lacquer at no additional cost. All StudioBirch Snare Drums ship for free in the lower 48 USA States.
