New Brady, Finally

[Drumsword]

Here are a few pics of the new Brady Snare. 4.5X14 Marri Ply in the Blackheart finish. I have pics of Chris Brady's Autograph on the inside shell, but have to try and post them later as the disc won't open. These pics were in the studio over the weekend, 2 weeks ago. and there is also a quick pic of the 6.5X14 Jarrah in wandoo burl included. Enjoy.

More Pics of both snares, in one I have a closeup of Chris Brady's Autograph, and also where he named my snare, "Pete's Punisher"

Gorgeous snares, love the natural finish.

Awesome pics! I'm glad Chris has taken his rightful place again with the company. They had a couple of dark years there.... now they are back to building some of the best drums around again.

Thanks man, Actually Chris tuned it before shipping it, and it came out of the box sounding amazing. All I did was tighten the snare wires a turn or 2. But it has a mid range punch that is unsurpassed (The higher end of mid range) with incredible sensitivity. Is the finest snare I think I've yet played, Next to the 6.5 that I have.

Thanks, Is my favorite now. I love the blackheart finish.

Congratulations on your purchase. It's a beautiful drum and I bet it sounds as special as it looks.

How many plies does Chris use when he makes snare shells out of marri? I think Chris uses 9 plies when making jarrah snare shells - your photo suggests this isn't the case for marri, which probably has a different density, so, please tell us: how does the marri sound differ from the jarrah sound?

[Drumsword]

you're right the Marri is also 9 ply. and is a little brighter sounding, still has all the mid range tone, but projects a little more it seems. I'm sure the depth adds to that as well.
