AwesomeThis snare drum is simply put an excellent snare drum. I've played on it several times and will be purchasing one soon. It has incredible cutting power, going through any cymbal resonance one could produce. Coupled with a deeper tone due to it's shell height. The cutting power of a piccolo snare that so many of us drummers need, with the tone that so many of us metal guys want.I can't wait to get the cash for this one.
well worth itthis snare id recomend for hard rock performers and possibly if you know what your doing it can be good for metal too. what gives difference between this snare and my birch shell snare is that the shell is completly made of nickle giving it a much different type of pop sound to it, but what i notice most when playing it is it does not sound like one hit, but several all at ounce. playing this snare is also comfortable becouse ive never had it open on me no matter how hard i hit.
now im not much for looks but this snare looks as good as it sounds. its tinted like a mirror black, i guess is best to describe it and can injure alot . ive had symbols stands tip over into the snare and ive even dropt it ounce or twice and it still sounds great and didnt have a scratch on it from what i could find however there arnt to many other nickle or steel sheld snares that ive played so though it sounds great to me please look into a few others before listening to me.
