Tama LU1465 Lars Ulrich Steel 6.5x14-in Snare
Tama's collaboration with some of the world's most respected drummers is nothing new. These innovative Signature Palette snares, however, are! These affordable pro snares were co-designed by Tama and the artists, delivering very specific features, sounds and playability. Lars Ulrich's model is a 3mm slab of diamond-plated steel with an extremely loud, throaty tone. It's 6-1/2 x 14" with REMO heads.
Tama Lars Ulrich Signature Snare LU1465
When it comes to the icons of heavy music, Lars Ulrich is among the giants of the genre... a genre which he and his band created almost singlehandedly. Metallica's marrige of powerful British metal to punk's chaotic energy produced a raw power that rock hadn't experienced in years. And at the center of it all was the bands founder, drummer Lars Ulrich.
A devout Tama player even before Tama achieved prominence, Lars was one of the very first players to harness the power of Tama's now legendary bell brass snare drum. That was only because Tama's bell brass snare was the only drum that could handle Metallica's incredible sound pressure levels. In a sonic enviroment like that, you have to have a drum capable of splitting skulls with a single whack.
Metallica has evolved over the years, as have Lars' drumming and his own set, but his bell brass snare remains a constant. While Tama's current standard bell brass snare comes equipped with bell brass hoops, Lars' LU1465BB signature model features die-cast zinc hoops for even more low end. The latest addition to Lars' arsenal is the LU1465, a solid 3mm slab of diamond plated steel precision rolled into a 6.5" x 14" shell. This drum may be even more throaty than a bell brass drum. Louder or not, the LU1465 is the right vehicle for Lars' next musical explorations with Metallica.
