Andante Next Generation Snare Drums were brought in 2012 which features a redesigned bottom assembly which include the snare strainers, snare guards and suspension ring. This new design allows the shell to float which allows the shell to contact the bottom head, intensifying the projection and dynamic range. Finishes and the hardware are the same. The shell is coated with a lacquer which allows the woodgrain to show. With their sleek look, Andante drums are unmistakable on the field. Andante is committed to developing drums specifically for pipe bands and manufactures all drums in Northern Ireland.

The tone and pitch from this drum are superb!

Review from Chris Barr @ Barr 1 Highland Supply-

"For starters, the drum is the lightest drum on the market which allows the corps to play more on the big instruments. The tonal quality and projection are superb with some of the best finishes I've seen on the market. Just an all-around great drum!"
