ASBA x REMI SERAFINO
ASBA Signature Rémi Serafino — 14” × 8”
A snare drum built to match his playing.
Developed with Rémi Serafino, drummer for IGORRR, this Signature model was born from a simple idea: to create a snare drum capable of handling powerful, demanding playing without sacrificing precision, sensitivity or tonal richness.
Its generous 14” × 8” dimensions give it immediate depth and presence. But behind its striking character lies a carefully engineered construction.
Its 7-ply shell combines several woods selected for their complementary properties. On the outside, Japanese Tamo ash veneer gives each drum its own unique grain pattern. At the heart of the shell, layers of European beech and spruce alternate, while the inside reveals a stunning figured sycamore maple ply.
A shell architecture designed to combine body, projection and definition, while retaining enough sensitivity to preserve every nuance of the player’s touch.
7 plies. Three wood species. One Signature.
Shell construction:
Japanese Tamo Ash — 0.6 mm European Beech — 0.9 mm Spruce — 1.5 mm European Beech — 0.9 mm Spruce — 1.5 mm European Beech — 0.9 mm Figured Sycamore Maple — 0.6 mm
Beyond its technical specifications, this snare drum embodies Rémi’s world: an instrument with character, designed to be pushed, hit hard, explored and played.
Developed with Rémi Serafino. Handcrafted in France by ASBA.
