Snare used by Terri Lynne Carrington?

[jose]

Hi... I am hoping someone can help me out! I am trying to find out all the details of the snare drum that Terri Lynne Carrington is playing on the video on her myspace with Herbie Hancock.

If anyone can help me it would be fantastic! Thanks.

I've seen Terri Lyne play a few times, and I think she uses a standard 5.5x14 Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute snare.

You can also check her gear page at www.terrilynecarrington.com.

Keep in mind, too, that depending on the venue and the travel distance, she sometimes plays Yamaha kits owned by the club, or others, or provided by Yamaha. So, snare choice may vary because of that.

I obviously have no real idea about Carrington specifically, but I'd be surprised if, even when using backline/rented kits, she didn't tour with at least her own snare/cymbals/BD pedal. I worked at a university theater and also a local city theater for a while, and every touring drummer who played a rented kit at either venue had those 3 items, at least.
