Gretsch Drums S1-0814SD-MAH 14" Lilletromme

Nicknamed "Swamp Dawg," the Gretsch S1-0814SD-MAH is a deep 8x14" snare drum with a mahogany shell that produces a warm, fat tone with generous low-end presence — a character quite unlike typical shallow snare drums.

Mahogany Shell

Mahogany's natural tonal qualities — warm low-mids, smooth sustain, and a dark, full-bodied character — are well suited to a deep-shell snare format, producing a sound that works beautifully in blues, funk, and studio recordings.

Deep 8-Inch Shell

The extra depth of this 8x14" shell amplifies the volume and projection compared to standard 5x14" configurations, delivering a powerful, authoritative crack that carries well in live settings without heavy EQ.

S1 Full Range Standards

Despite its unconventional character, the Swamp Dawg is built to the same bearing edge and hardware specifications as the rest of the S1 lineup, maintaining the quality and consistency of the series.
