In 1980, the TAMA Mastercraft Bell Brass snare drum was born. At the time, the Bell Brass was designed to match the explosive sounds of a new decade in music and delivered the purest snare sound ever achieved. Widely used in heavy rock music of the 80s and 90s, TAMA's Bell Brass snare drum came to simply be known as "The Terminator". As aggressive of a sound it produced, its versatility was unmatched as it found its way into the hands of the world's top Jazz & Fusion drummers of the era.

Now, nearly half a century later, the TAMA Mastercraft "The Bell Brass" 50th Anniversary Reissue pays tribute to this legendary sound. Featuring a special alloy of copper and tin and moulded into a 3mm thick shell, this super heavy bell brass shell produces extreme volume and outstanding tonal range.

Faithfully reproduced to original specifications as much as modern technology allows, the Mastercraft "The Bell Brass" 50th Anniversary Reissue brings the iconic & timeless sound to drummers once again.
