The LP Stainless Steel Salsa Snare is a 5.5" x 13" snare drum built for Latin music contexts. Stainless steel gives this snare a bright, cutting tone with a pronounced crack that cuts through a salsa or Latin band. The 13" diameter is slightly smaller than a standard 14" snare, which contributes to its higher-pitched, more cutting character.

This snare works equally well in traditional timbale-adjacent roles and in drum kit setups where you want a snare with Latin character. LP's hardware is solid and reliable, and the stainless shell holds up to the physical demands of live performance. A distinctive instrument for the percussionist who wants a Latin-voiced snare.
