Hello everyone. I'm new here, so if my post is in the wrong place, feel free to move it or whatever.
I've been drumming for quite a while now, but I can't for the life of me work out what's wrong with my snare drum. It's the snare that came with my all maple PDP X7, and when I hit the snare (with no deadening), it rings out, but with a sort of tinny, ugly ping sound.
I have a 2006 Tama Superstar also, and the snare on that - tuned in the same way sounds fantastic.
I've tried loosening the skins, 1 by 1, I've tried tightening them, loosening the snare, tightening the snare. I'm basically out of ideas.
The top skin is a Remo weartherking that I bought not that long ago, the bottom one is the one that came with the kit I think.
Any ideas would be appreciated..
Thanks
Tom
