PURPLEHEART - 10 PLY // 5.8mm
Purpleheart’s unique, deep purple color is showstopping and is considered a high-end exotic wood, associated with high-quality custom drums. The dense wood quality also produces a powerful, punchy sound with good attack and sensitivity. With further age and exposure to UV light, the wood becomes a dark brown with a hint of purple. This color-shift can be slowed and minimized by using a UV inhibiting finish on the wood.
Create your own custom snare drum with Nordic's top-quality snare shells. With a variety of stunning options to match your preferences, expert craftsmanship, and fast turnaround, you can build your perfect snare starting at just $375!
Snare kits are available for $299 (8-lug) and $325 (10-lug), with an included Services Bundle valued at $180, plus the cost of your chosen shell.
