A keystone badge Acrolite or a Supra. No doubt about it, Ludwig metal snares are the benchmark. My current B/O badge Acro just doesn't have it ... I've tried all sorts of different heads, snares ... I just haven't found that magic formula. The Black Beauty on the other hand, tunes up nice with anything. Otherwise, that's it ... I have no desire for another snare ... (today, at least  ) |

I played on a cocktail kit while at PASIC and thought it was really cool.
It had an 18" top head with a 14"snare side head (inside the body) the bottom bass drum head was 18".
I played on it with brushes and had wide open spaces to sweep.
This would be my dream "snare".

all you have to deal with is drilling for the hardware and finishing the wood - high school shop class sorts of issues.
That's the beauty of the unfinished Adonis stuff. The holes and beds are pre-done. All you have to do is varnish or paint it and slap it together. I'm hoping to grab one soon myself. |

I saw this one drum in the Dunnett booth at the NAMM show. It was a brass shell engraved with the same design as the ring from the Lord of the Rings. It really sounded great. It would be the snare to rule all other snares.

Lord of the Bling!  IIRC, Bermuda Schwartz is now the proud owner of that drum. (Mr. Schwartz, are you out there?) |

There's a thread he posted in the other day with a pic of that drum.

The techniques, though they play an important role in the early stage, should not be too restrictive, complex or mechanical. If we cling to them, we will become bound by their limitation. Any technique, however worthy and desirable, becomes a disease when the mind is obsessed with it.

as always James, another fun thread! hmm, i need another snare like a hole in me head, but lets see... mentioned these in the other snare thread, but... 1. Brady jarrah ply 14x6.5 - probably the only large snare i'd ever buy/use. has an awesome tuning range, and sounds fatter than any maple or birch snare i've ever heard. 2. DW Edge "Craviotto'ed" 12x5.5 - heard it at a friend's gig, and was supremely blown away. poppy, throaty roar from the bandstand, and waited impatiently to run up to the stage and see what was making the ruckus. wasnt a craviotto shell version, but guess it wouldnt hurt.  3. Drum Solo cherry solid shell 13x5.5 - i've heard sooo much about this wood, and considering these two makers are tops in their field, i'm sure they could pull the most from it. supposedly, amazing tuning range, incredible attack, and full round woody resonance. pretty much everything i could ever want in a snare.  |

plain and simple if I had $20,000 I would snatch that baby up.Dear lord you could buy a car for that price.But if I had a choice car or snare...snare all the way.Less trouble.All you gotta replace is the heads and it don't need gas.

Off-topic: If you'll look at the photo of the undercarriage, we see that this puts an end to the argument over whether snare beds are present on Acousti-Perfect shells. |

http://www.onlinerock.com/mf_store/drums/s/Pearl_Snare_Drums/Pearl_Chad_Smith_Signature_Snare_Dr_448685.htmI don't have the money now, so maybe when I do I may look at something else but for now, that Chad Smith signature is a target... Details from the link above: It's one of the most sensitive snare drums we offer -- very bright and articulate with great body. It also looks as good as it sounds, offering a 5" x 14" black nickel-plated steel shell, Pearl's CL55 bridge-style minimum-contact lugs, 2.3mm SuperHoop IIs, a Gladstone-style vertical pull throw-off, and precision-fit stainless steel tension rods with solid brass receives.
