A gem of a snare from a UK custom builder with a hand-built shell teaming mahogany, beech and copper.
Burnley drummer Andrew McKenna began making his own shells in 2013, which, he says, is “when we became a professional company rather than just a hobby-builder”. the company also makes complete kits and supplies bare shells to others.
Build
North took over the shell-making equipment, press, moulds and tools, etc of Carrera drums when Dave Carrera stepped back from the business a couple of years ago. Dave made really superb shells and it’s good news that North is carrying on that tradition.
