Overview
Yamaha Roy Haynes Signature 'Centennial' 14" x 5.5" Ltd Edition Hand Hammered Copper Snare Drum
Roy Haynes’ career and contribution to music was one of historic length and depth. His style was so foundational it earned him a lifelong nickname – ‘Snap Crackle’ – within a decade of his first forays into professional jazz drumming. A foreshadowing of foundational impacts to come.
It’s rare for a musician to have so much of a hand in a genre’s history, outside fast-moving innovators in niche sub-genre spaces. So, when someone like Roy Haynes comes along, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon. Roy not only influenced the development of jazz but did so over eight decades – developing and innovating modern drum technique and philosophy.
To honor what would have been Roy’s 100th birthday, Yamaha Drums has decided to celebrate his life and legacy with a special Centennial Signature Snare Drum.
- Hand Hammered and carefully assembled in Japan, the 14”x 5.5” copper shell is the core of this unique instrument.
- Equipped with 45° /R2.4 bearing edges and Dyna Hoops guarantee a warm and dynamic sound that can easily be adjusted by the inner mute.
- Limited to 100 pieces worldwide, each snare comes with a special brochure that includes a message and signature from Roy.
