SSD13 Gavin Harrison Signature snare drum: Protean

The name Protean stems from ancient Greek mythology and was chosen to reflect this instrument's incredible versatility. Gavin Harrison is best known as the drummer for Porcupine Tree, and he helped Sonor develop a snare drum that can quickly adapt to any musical situation. Hence, the Sonor Gavin Harrison Signature Protean snare drum combines classic elements with modern innovation. The Gavin Harrison Signature snare features a 6-ply shell with a special triple flanged steel Power Hoop with cutaways on the bottom. With the Sonor Dual Glide snare strainer, changing your snare wires is easier than ever! Furthermore, the Protean snare drum also comes with three damping rings (light, medium and heavy). Two specially designed Protean drum keys help make both tuning your drum and replacing the drumheads a much quicker and easier process.
