I bought this drum in 1977, it still sounds amazing (see video ) what snare drum do you use?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5ihbekoleY
Would a 6.5" x 14" work for small group jazz, I wonder?
Cheers Toni....love your covers,and the BB.That just may be a bronze shell you have there,as it does sound a little drier,and more woody than the brass shelled BB's.

Hello to Tony from a fellow Sheffield sticksman!
I wonder if the BB owners out there have ever compared their drum to a Pearl Steve Ferrone signature?
I've had a SFS for years and am very happy with it. I've been told they are a "poor man's" Black Beauty. I believe it has a brass shell, 6.5" deep, 10 lugs. My only gripe is the gold plated rims - never did see the point of that. Anyway I've since put S hoops on it which sound (and look) much better!
