Dixon Gregg Bissonette Big Bud Signature Snare 8 x 14inch
The Dixon Gregg Bissonette Big Bud Signature Snare 8 x 14inch pays tribute to Gregg Bissonette’s father and mentor, Bud Bissonette. When Gregg envisioned honoring his father’s memory, Dixon crafted this versatile powerhouse of a snare that delivers the iconic sound of ’70s and ’80s rock and roll. Whether you set it up as a side snare, mount it between your knees or place it front and center, the Big Bud helps you forge a signature sound.
A Shell With Depth and Warmth
The 6-ply, 4 mm shell combines two plies of walnut with four plies of maple for a blend of depth, warmth and resonance. The walnut plies add richness and body while the maple provides crispness. Rounded 45-degree bearing edges maximize contact between the shell and heads, optimizing vibration transfer for an expansive tone. This stout shell is ready to punch through any mix.
Hardware With Retro Style
The Big Bud’s double tub lugs and steel triple-flanged hoops are a throwback to the era that inspired it. The lugs securely hold the shell’s plies together while allowing it to resonate freely. The hoops give you 3.2 mm of contact with coated or clear heads for crisp articulation and rebound. A Dixon lever-style throw-off and adjustable butt plate put a classic touch on this retro-styled drum.
