Dunnett 7x14 Raw Titanium Snare Drum

Dunnett 7x14 Raw Titanium Snare Drum

For many drummers, the Dunnett Raw Titanium Snare Drum represents the pinnacle of modern metal snare drum design. Handcrafted by Ronn Dunnett in Canada, these drums have developed a cult following among professional drummers, recording engineers, and collectors for their extraordinary combination of sensitivity, projection, and musicality. While titanium is often associated with power and volume, Dunnett's raw titanium shells possess a unique warmth and responsiveness that set them apart from virtually every other metal snare drum on the market.

This 7x14 Raw Titanium model delivers exceptional depth, body, and authority while retaining the remarkable sensitivity that has made Dunnett titanium drums legendary. The raw, unfinished titanium shell provides a complex tonal character with a wide dynamic range, allowing the drum to respond effortlessly to delicate ghost notes, brushwork, and intricate articulation while producing thunderous rimshots and backbeats when pushed.

Unlike steel or brass, titanium offers a distinctive blend of warmth, focus, and projection. The shell produces a full-bodied fundamental note with controlled overtones and impressive clarity, making it equally at home in studio sessions, live performance environments, and demanding professional applications. Many drummers describe Dunnett titanium drums as combining the sensitivity of a premium brass drum with the projection and focus of a modern metal shell.

The 7" depth adds additional low-end presence and power while maintaining excellent responsiveness throughout the tuning range. Tuned high, the drum delivers articulate crack and projection. Tuned lower, it produces a massive, authoritative voice with exceptional body and sustain.

As with all Dunnett instruments, the hardware and craftsmanship are second to none. From the precision bearing edges to the company's renowned throw-off system and meticulous shell construction, every component is designed to maximize performance and reliability. Please note that all Dunnett raw titanium shells will show fingerprints, and is part of the charm of the design. Dunnett titanium drums can be wrapped in various colors by request, and would be a special order through West Coast Drum Shop.
