Switchblade
The Switchblade cuts fast and shines bright. The American Maple shell delivers crisp articulation while single-flanged hoops keep the tone open and lively. Finished with striking Exotic Burl veneer, it slices through the mix with a sharp edge and brilliant clarity.

FEATURES
SONIClear™ Bearing Edge
The SONIClear™ Bearing Edge is standard on all BP Snare drum shells and allows the drumhead to sit flatter and make better contact with the shell. The result is a stronger and deeper fundamental pitch, effortless and consistent tuning, and a significantly expanded tuning range. For the serious player, the increased head-to-edge contact increases shell vibration, allowing the sonic nuances of the Hybrid shell to stand out.
Air Flow Venting
The Cylinder-drive strainer and butt side adjustment use a self-lubricating bearing to ensure smooth operation. The adjustment knobs employ “micro-lock” technology providing precise tension control.
Cylinder-Drive Strainer
