Post by: snaresoff on April 29, 2008, 11:51 PM
I just picked this up at Sam Ash and actually got a deal...I have found that store to be lame beyond belief.I popped into pick up a pair of sticks I saw it on the floor it listed for $419..I went direct to the store manager told him I would give him $350 on the spot...freakin Ok'd it..I found out later that this stores drum dept is one of the worst performing they don't move much in the way of drums...so I guess I made out ;D!!hehe!
Crisp-Tight and Dry..lotsa R&B and Funk..sound  is incredible gonna throw on J1 batter and 300hazy on snare side. Anybody recomend great snares that would be cool!

Last I remember, Steve Jordan was playing Ludwigs. Is he playing Yamaha now?

That's a great drum -- I've eyed it many times.

If you haven't seen Steve Jordan's DVD, you should -- he absolutely CRANKS that drum and it sounds amazing.

(But really, most everything he plays sounds great.)

Yes, he's a Yammy man.
But he can be seen playing the odd other kit, or snare, or cymbal.
I think he briefly plays an old Luddy on his DVD 'The Groove Is Here'.

what snares are you currently using? I'm playing around lately with BIG snare sets, hard to find for my 13" though.

I'm trying to find something larger than a 16 for the 13" snares but having a little trouble. I know there are some previous threads about this with little closure. I think pro sounds makes a 20 strand, I'm picking one up soon; I'll let you know how it goes.
