Big Fat Snare Drum Snare Bourine Donut BFSD 12"

A vintage snare drum sound with a tambourine key

The BFSD Snare-Bourine-Donut is a snare drum accessory designed for drummers looking for a fuller, rounder and more powerful sound. Placed directly on your batter head, it lowers the fundamental pitch of the shell and adds a tone inspired by vintage snare drums from the 1970s.

Its central cutout preserves some of the attack and rebound of your regular head, while the jingles add a bright, rhythmic texture reminiscent of a tambourine. It is a practical solution for enriching your grooves in the studio, on stage or during rehearsals, without having to use multiple muffling accessories.

Thanks to its rubber gasket, the BFSD stays securely in place on the snare drum while playing. The thumb notch makes it easy to remove between songs, allowing you to quickly return to your instrument’s original sound.
