This old pearl 14" snare drum at church had an old worn Power center reverse dot on the batter and an old stock reso. I took my pretty much brand new power center reverse dot and put it on it and it sounded sweet!
The next week I put my old Evans genera reso on the snare, replacing the stock reso, and it sounded so bad! It was a weird bad... I couldn't hear the snares on the drum even though they were definitely turned on and it sort of sounded like a tom. It was right before we had to do praise and worship and it sounded disgusting so the whole time I was trying to tweak the tuning as we were playing but it didn't help.
What do you think might be wrong with it? I didn't have a chance to check everything out. I'll check on Sunday, but as of right now I think that the drum was choked up or something. I don't know...
EDIT: Does anyone know of a good clear snare batter head? Or a head that works as a snare batter head? I have an acrylic snare and it was look awesome if I had a clear head! (I didn't want to create a new thread so I asked on here. Thankyouuuu)
