Product Overview
The Suzie Snood keeps its voice high and honest, the kind of sharp yelp that carries across a hardwood bottom. The slate version sets a Pennsylvania slate surface over a glass soundboard, so you get bright cutting up top and soft clucks and purrs when a tom eases in close. The glass version runs high with just enough rasp for wind-cutting yelps. Both are hand-assembled in the USA and come with an HS carbon striker.

- Slate surface set over a glass soundboard for range from cutting to soft purrs
- Glass surface runs high with rasp for wind-cutting yelps
