Hey all, long time no see!
Anyway, I'm using a 5" ludwig supraphonic snare from the late 60's. Been playing mostly functions and mostly rock etc. Have had puresound equalizer snares on it for a while and I love them for that. But I'm now in a jazz band. Did my first gig a couple of weeks ago and just felt the equalizers weren't right. I just feel I need more snare sound, especially for my rolls (buzzs etc). I'm using a lot of brushs in what I now do, Jeff Hamilton retractable wire ones.
So does anyone have any suggestions for what I can try? I don't know what's out there. One shop I rang suggested some Pearl sensitive ones (said he used them). No one really has anything in my town other than standard Gibraltar ones.
