The Chavez Arsenal Series S-Hoop Practice Pad is a rimmed practice pad effectively replicates the feel of a marching snare. It features a carbon surface and a steel S-Hoop, and features a resonator chamber that produces a far more satisfying sound than the tick-tick-tick of a conventional practice pad. Rudiments can be fun! The resonator chamber is located directly beneath the center zone, which promotes fluency in the optimum center striking area of a marching drum.
