DW Collector’s Series 8x14 SSC Maple Snare Drum – Gold Abalone w/ Black Nickel Hardware

The DW Collector’s Series 8x14 SSC Maple Snare in Gold Abalone is a statement instrument—both visually and sonically—crafted for drummers who demand depth, projection, and unmistakable presence behind the kit. At CymbalFusion.com, we specialize in high-end instruments like this—pieces that don’t just perform, but define your sound. Built from DW’s proprietary SSC (Specialized Shell Configuration) Maple, this snare is engineered to maximize low-end punch and controlled resonance. The deeper 8” shell delivers a commanding, throaty backbeat with extended body, making it ideal for players who want power without sacrificing articulation.

The Gold Abalone finish shifts and reflects light with rich, organic dimension, perfectly complemented by sleek black nickel hardware for a bold, modern aesthetic. This is not just a snare—it’s a centerpiece. Outfitted with DW True Hoops, the drum maintains precise tuning stability and an open tonal response, while the MAG throw-off offers smooth, reliable snare engagement with a confident magnetic-assisted action. The 5-position butt plate allows for fine-tuned snare wire tension, giving you complete control over sensitivity and feel.

From studio sessions to live stages, this Collector’s Series snare delivers the unmistakable tone, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that define DW at its highest level—exactly the kind of instrument you expect from CymbalFusion.com.

 

Key Features

 

  • Size: 8x14 – deep shell for powerful projection and body

  • Shell: SSC Maple – optimized for low-end punch and musical resonance

  • Finish: Gold Abalone – premium, high-impact visual finish

Why It Stands Out

The 8x14 configuration gives this snare a bigger voice than standard depths, making it perfect for rock, gospel, pop, and modern studio work where a fat, authoritative backbeat is essential. Combined with DW’s SSC shell design, you get a drum that feels as good as it sounds—responsive, controlled, and incredibly dynamic. At CymbalFusion.com, we curate instruments that inspire, and this Collector’s Series snare is built to do exactly that.
