USED BRADY / Jarrah Plywood 14x5.5 Blackheart Finish Snare Drum Brady Snare Drum [08]

This is a BRADY snare drum, which has become quite rare these days.
It’s from an Australian brand that used jarrah wood—the company has since gone out of business.
At the time, there were two types available—solid wood and plywood—and this one is the plywood version; based on the grain pattern, the veneer appears to be Black Heart.

Jara wood has a dark tone with well-defined contours; it produces a fat sound with a wide dynamic range, giving the impression that it could handle a variety of musical genres. The plywood shell, in particular, is well-balanced, producing a clean sound across all registers while also being very user-friendly.

This particular drum appears to have been manufactured in 2004 and shows some overall scuffing.
Although it’s about 20 years old, it appears to have been well-maintained.
Although the heads and snare wires have been replaced, there are no particular issues, and even the Nickelworks plastic piston-drive switch—which is known to have some durability concerns—is currently functioning without any problems.
Brady snares have been fetching high prices in recent years, and this particular drum exudes such high quality that it reaffirms their value.
