British Drum Co FB-14-60-SN Firebird Series 14x6-Inch Snare Drum, Copper Over Brass Finish

Product Overview

Forged with fire and built for legends — the British Drum Co. Firebird Series Snare is a stunning collaboration between the British Drum Co., Iron Maiden’s Nicko McBrain, and Rebecca McBrain. This extraordinary snare embodies the spirit of resilience and artistry, drawing inspiration from Nicko’s iconic “The Future Past Tour 2023” drum kit.

Each Firebird snare features a meticulously handcrafted copper-over-brass shell, individually hand-torched to create unique scorch marks — no two drums are alike. Its double-bead design enhances projection and tonal focus, while Palladium hardware and gold-coloured tension rods deliver a striking visual flair.

The Firebird combines visual drama with world-class performance, offering drummers two hoop options: classic triple flange or vintage-style single flange with mini claws. Every detail, from its laser-engraved interior washers to the symbolic Firebird vent badge, celebrates precision, power, and rebirth. This snare isn’t just an instrument — it’s a statement of passion and perseverance.
