In 2003, A&F President Ramy Antoun was invited to join Seal as his drummer. When given the songs to learn, Antoun took it upon himself to recreate the electronic loops on the records with live drums, matching the electronic drum sound with acoustic drums. For one specific song, he reached for a 1920s era banjo, disassembled it and used the thin short brass shell as a snare. He grabbed two Remo heads, a couple vintage brass hoops, a handful of clips and single tension rods. Ten minutes later, his first Pancake snare was born.
Flash forward 13 years, the Pancake snare is a new addition to the A&F Drum Co. snare drum collection. This Pancake brass snare drum has a handmade deep raw brass shell, handmade raw brass hoops, single-tension tuning rods with clips, heads and a beer tap throw/butt plate. Simple design, practical application, brilliant sound.
