Enjoyed and trusted by drummers on tour, in the studio, and in the club, the NATO-1 XL is an extended length version of the original NATO-1 that retro-fits to over 50 throw off models (and counting) from vintage to modern! With a dozen hole spacings from 3/8" to 1 11/16" to use, and an updated aesthetic to match the curvature of the drum shell, the performance, fit, and finish of the NATO-1 XL is un-matched in the industry. See compatibility details below.

NATO-1 XL HIGHLIGHTS
Adjust & Play On-The-Fly
Set the snare position anywhere along the entire moveable range without having to lock the position in place.
Simply slide the handle to adjust & play on-the-fly.
The amount of force needed to turn the handle is completely under your control by a single friction adjustment screw.
Simple Design & Silent Operation
Both the snare wire tension (how tight the snare wires are) and snare wire position (near or far to the reso head) are adjusted using a single movement of the handle.
This simple design provides for an ultra-quiet operation as well as providing ultimate simplicity of operation.
Compact & Durable
Weighing just 7.45 oz (112g) & only 2 7/8" tall (73mm), the NATO-1™ XL is hands-down the among the smallest & lightest throw off on the market today.
Extremely durable with its anodized surface treatment for aluminum parts & lacquer finish for brass parts.
Precision Machined
Made with high grade aluminum, brass, and machined to .001 tolerances, each part fits and operates smoothly, reliably, and without rattling during play.
Each NATO-1™ XL is backed by a lifetime warranty for defects.
