  • Overview

    A one-off from the second American Vintage Series / Mapex Beyond Shimano Collaboration.

    Custom built 8ply 8mm maple shell with AAAA rank quilted maple exterior, created by the great Shimano Lefty of Beyond Shimano, Japan.

    For this one, Shimano San left off the racing stripes seen on the first American Vintage Series snares so the grain of the wood can be appreciated fully.

    エクステリアに4A ランクのキルテッドメイプルを採用した8ply 8mm shellです。今回のテーマは杢を最大限いかせるシンプルな仕様といたしました。くどいですが、シェルの塗装仕上げとして、60'~70'年代のスネアが現代まで生き残った状態を再現する。それがアメリカンビンテージシリーズです。全体的にはまずまずの雰囲気です。今回はスティールパワーフープ仕様ですが、ダエキャストフープ仕様でも販売可能です。1台のみのOne Off です。
