Black Nickel Brass II
Black Nickel Brass II
$999.02
The 1.5mm-thick brass shell gives a much more solid sound than its appearance may suggest – providing the perfect blend of rich depth, balanced mid-low frequencies and great projection.
Its sound far exceeds expectations for this type of snare – and meets all the demands of today’s music scene.
It comes standard with a baseball bat-type, 3-position inner muffler for enhanced playability and a variety of personalized sounds.
The sound is the result of a perfect balance of shell material and thickness, bearing edge design and lapel length. It is undoubtedly going to be a hit with many players.

This snare drum has a 70s vibe to its sound, but it’s far from being just a vintage copy - it evokes that era while maintaining a unique voice of its own. Its sound is well-defined and controlled, thanks to the internal muffler.
The Canopus design is unmistakable, and the lugs are truly iconic.
To top it all off, the Black Nickel finish is the final touch on what I consider a true work of art.

I`ve played this snare in every setting imaginable - from jazz trios and funk bands to big band horn blasts and deep swampy grooves - and it always delivers.
The Canopus BB-2 Black Brass is hands down the most versatile, musical, and reliable snare I own. It sings in every genre, responds with incredible dynamics, and just feels right under the sticks.
Whether I`m in the studio or on stage, this is my number one go-to snare, Thanks, Canopus!

Type-R Magnum:
This thing is a monster. Classic, 3mm cast brass tones thanks to Canopus’ perfect bearing edges and low-mass lugs and hardware. This thing can be everything from huge and phat sounding to very focused and defined in its crack. Truly an amazing snare drum, and I consider myself fortunate to own one! Turns heads and scares guitar players everywhere I take it!
Black Nickel Brass II:
This one is my main workhorse. I have used this one as my number one road snare since I got it! It’s Canopus’ take on a classic, legendary drum, but with the quality of Canopus Drums! The drum is so full, vibrant, and can go from phat to crack while retaining all of the warmth you’d expect from a Black Nickel over Brass Shell. The internal muffler is also a nice touch, and I use frequently! This one gets comments from engineers and band members alike, praising its tonality.
Both of these drums are fine examples of the detail and quality that Canopus is known for! I’m very proud to own both, and they pair very nicely with my Birch series kit!
I love my Canopus drums! They’ve taken care of me very well since I obtained them, and I legitimately cannot say enough great things about them. Wonderful, high quality instruments that last a lifetime.
