BEDFORD

AK
The new Stainles Steel Snare Series has been completely re-engineered from hoop to hoop. Made of the highest quality North American stainless steel, the new AK resonates an articulate distinct sound that separates it from all other metallic drums. Choose our signature Wood Hoops for an organic, woody sound or our triple-flanged Steel Hoops for a brighter more vibrant timbre. The Ayotte AK is available in 14x5.5, 13x6 and 10x6.
