Gretsch Stanton Moore Signature Snare Drum - 4.5x14 ITEM DESCRIPTION This drum was recently used in clinic by Stanton Moore here at the Drum Center, and he even took the time to autograph it! The Gretsch Stanton Moore Signature Maple Snare Drum was created by Gretsch in collaboration with legendary funk stylist Stanton Moore. This is the drum that feeds Stanton's musical fire for swampy, nuance-laced second line snare grooves and full-attack rim shots. The single-ply, solid Birdseye maple shell projects a clear fundamental tone capable of a wide dynamic range and 4.5" x 14" shell size gives this drum its quick response. Subtle ghost notes are captured with clarity. Varying timbres are cleanly expressed as the drum is played from the edge to the center of the snare head. A distinctive drum for a distinctive drummer. The Gretsch SM-45148DS snare drum has the following features: Single ply solid maple shell with maple reinforcement rings Eight Gretsch "5471" Mini Lugs Die Cast Hoops Dunnett Throw-off 30-degree bearing edges Nitrocellulose Gloss Lacquer 42-strand snare wires Stanton Moore Signature Badge and Emblem Video Demo - Gretsch Stanton Moore Signature Snare Drum - 4.5x14 MY TAKE ON IT // RECOMMENDATIONS Funky!

If you reside in Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico, please call us at 603-319-8109 or email us. If you need to return an item that was originally shipped to you for free, the amount of your store credit or refund will reflect the cost we paid to ship your item. For example, if you choose to return a $400 snare drum that was shipped to you for free, your credit / refund will likely be $15-30 less than the original purchase price ($370-385), reflecting the cost we incurred to ship the drum to you. The vast majority of our domestic orders are shipped via FedEx Ground, with a handful being sent with USPS depending on the item(s) and destination. Should you require expedited shipping or prefer to use another carrier such as UPS, please call us to arrange your shipment. We ship via FedEx Ground on Monday through Friday and via USPS on Monday through Saturday. Most orders placed before 12pm Eastern time are processed and shipped the same day. In some cases it may take an extra 24-48 hours. In the event that an item you order is unavailable (e.g., not in stock, on backorder, out of production, etc), we will notify you immediately to determine what actions are appropriate. No Signature Required: Most domestic shipments are sent with No Signature Required by default for both FedEx Ground and USPS. If you wish to have a signature required, there may be an additional charge. In either case, if a package is returned to us after 3 attempts to deliver, the shipping amount will not be refunded.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express from a variety of countries outside the United States. We accept PayPal (in US dollars) from customers with verified accounts and confirmed shipping addresses. In some cases, we can also accept bank / wire transfers. Please note that all credit card orders require additional verification and must be manually processed. Our website will not recognize credit cards issued by non-US banks. We use USPS Priority Mail for most international shipments. In the case of larger items (or when there are USPS country restrictions), we used FedEx. Shipping rates may vary from estimates shown online on our website or on our eBay listings. In the event that the actual cost of shipping is different from the initial estimate, your invoice will be adjusted (either lower or higher) to reflect the actual cost of shipping. We make every effort to consolidate the number of boxes used when you purchase multiple items to reduce the cost of shipping. Please note that such "combined shipping" is done at our discretion with regard to the safety of the items you order. If we feel that combining certain items in one package may cause damage during shipment, we will notify you and items can be shipped separately at the appropriate cost. Many governments around the world levy some combination of excise tax, value-added tax (VAT), import duties, and other fees on products sent from the United States. We are not responsible for paying these fees. We do encourage you to check with local regulations prior to purchasing so you know what responsibilities you have to your government (if any). Most USPS Priority Mail shipments, regardless of the final destination, arrive within 1-3 weeks of shipment. However, in some cases, your order may get "stuck" in Customs for an extended periods of time. We are not responsible for any delays caused by Customs processing in your country. In the event that a package is damaged on arrival or lost, it is the buyer's responsibility to open an investigation with the shipping courier (e.g., USPS, FedEx), typically within 2 days of receiving a damaged item, or realizing an item has been lost. These investigations can take several weeks to conclude. We are not able to offer any replacements or refunds until the investigation has been completed.
