General

Despite what its name suggests, tulipwood has little to do with flowers and is actually a strong yet lightweight type of wood that lends itself to easy wood and therefore, drum crafting. For the construction of the shell, Natal used six plies of tulipwood, which has resulted in a dry sound with heaps of focus and full-bodied resonance. Finished with a beautiful walnut inlay and satin-gloss lacquer, this 13 x 6.5-inch snare is suitable for virtually every style of music.

Tri-Throw Spanner and Sun Lugs

As professional quality snare drums befit, the Tulipwood Series models feature some of the same hardware that comes fitted to Natal's flagship Originals Series. The Tri-Throw spanner, for starters, not only lets you turn it 'off' and 'on', but offers a third in-between setting for a softer snare sound. Another characteristic addition are the round lugs with sun-shaped logo, while Tru-Tune tension rods combine with Evans drumheads for tight tuning. As a matter of fact, even the 45-degree bearing edges have been made by hand!

Natal Tulipwood 13 x 6.5-inch Snare Drum
Wrote the following about Natal Tulipwood 13 x 6.5-inch Snare Drum
Bought this snare after considering makes & sizes for a while & decided to opt for a Natal 13x6.5 size to go with my 14x6.5 Supralite Ludwig so I wanted a different sound & look to that drum ...
After tuning the heads [Evens 360 coated - excellent] I have only as yet used it at band rehearsals but the drum produced a nice low solid classic sound that I wanted - the drum build/design & look of the wood is fabulous and the price was a steal...
