Hey guys.
I took my snare into work the other day to show one of the other drum-tech's from one of our other locations. Anyways, I was leaving and set my snare drum down on the roof of my car for a second. I then proceeded to put everything else in my car, get in and drive off.....with my snare drum still on top of my car. I didn't realize until I got to our gig that night what I had done, and after I re-traced my path 3.5 times and mis-took a hubcap on the interstate as my drum, I officially gave up. At this point I'm just hoping whoever finds it can get more use out of it than I will. That marked the end of my 3 year stint on my Ludwig Maple Piccolo, so somebody else got a $300 blessing Saturday evening!
ANYWAYS, at this point I'm in a bit of a pinch. We're going into the studio tomorrow, and I need a shallow snare that will cut through well in a reggae band. We've had a Tama Soprano Steel Snare (13" x 4") in-store that I've wanted since before I started working there, but haven't had any need for. At this point...I have need, major need as I will be recording in less than 24 hours from now. While I am in for my shift I plan on purchasing the snare, as it sounds absolutely fantastic with factory heads, as well as factory tunings.
I'll be paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $80, and my band offered to pay half out of the band fund to help me so I'm basically pay $40 for a new snare.
Just wanted to know if anyone had any experience with these snare drums.
