However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
The Premier Artist 14” x 4” Steel Snare Drum produces a sharp, focused sound with a crisp attack and a tight, dry tone due to its shallow depth and full 14" diameter. Its 0.8mm Steel shell provides a bright, articulate sound with long sustain and a clear, cutting attack that easily cuts through mixes. The shallow depth of the snare limits sustain, providing a controlled response ideal for precise, punchy playing, while steel shells offer greater clarity and resonance compared to wood. Steel rims shots are especially sharp and penetrating, making them popular for loud, high-energy musical settings. This snare features a 24-strand snare wire that provides a crisp, snappy attack with enhanced snare buzz due to increasing contact with the bottom head, resulting in a brighter, more pronounced snare sound. 1.5mm triple-flange drum hoops offer a more open and resonant sound that gives the drum a more natural, expressive sound.

A 14" x 4" snare drum produces a sharp, focused sound with a crisp attack and a relatively dry, tight tone. The 14" diameter delivers a full, rounded sound, while the shallow 4" depth limits sustain, resulting in a more controlled and immediate response. The tone is typically bright and punchy, with a quick decay that ensures the snare sound remains precise and articulate. The shallow depth enhances the sharpness of the attack, making it ideal for players who need a snare that cuts through the mix without excessive resonance. It offers good projection and a clear, defined sound.
The 0.8mm steel shell produces a bright, articulate, and powerful sound characterised by a long sustain. Known for their clear, cutting attack, steel shells offer a consistent tone that easily “cuts through” mixes, making them highly versatile across musical genres. Compared to wood shells, steel provides greater clarity and definition, with a more resonant and lingering sustain that adds fullness to the sound. The rim shot on a steel shell is particularly sharp and penetrating, making it a popular choice for drummers who play in loud or high-energy musical settings.
This snare drum features a 24-strand snare wire that provides a good balance between snare response and shell tone, offering a crisp, snappy attack with an enhanced buzz character. The increased number of strands results in more contact with the bottom head, producing a brighter, more pronounced snare sound. This added contact also contributes to a fuller, more resonant tone that enriches the drum's overall sound. While they emphasise the snare response, 24-strand wires still allow the natural tone of the shell to come through.
1.5mm triple-flange drum hoops offer a slightly less focused, more open, and resonant sound compared to thicker hoops. Their thinner construction provides greater flexibility, allowing the drumhead to vibrate more freely, which enhances shell resonance and contributes to a fuller tone with a slightly brighter character. This gives the drum a more natural, expressive sound, making thinner hoops ideal for drummers seeking increased resonance and tonal complexity.
Featuring a polished Chrome finish with matching chrome hardware, this snare drum adds a touch of class to any drum kit. Completed with Premier’s iconic P-badge, this drum blends modern craftsmanship with a nod to Premier’s storied history, giving you a snare that stands out for all the right reasons.
Our legacy, your future. The perfect blend of heritage and technical innovation, Premier have remained at the forefront of musical instrument design, providing a legendary sound to drummers and percussionists worldwide since 1922.
