|
|
| I just bought a Pearl Chad Smith 5x14 metal shell snare drum. I don't even know who Chad Smith is but I played this drum next to many others in the drum shop and I found myself always coming back to this one. It just has the sound I was looking for. A nice crisp sounding drum. I also wanted a metal shell as I already have a wood shell snare. For $ 180.00 you can't really go wrong with this drum. Oh and the black finish on the shell looks great. |

| Congratulations. It looks like a very nice drum. I'm going to be looking for a metal shell snare before too long, myself, as I now have 2 maple snares. |

| One of my collegues here actually plays that very same snare. While I'm not a proponant of Pearl, I'd have to say that it's a pretty nice sounding snare! |

Ah, thanks. I'll have to check them out. I don't listen to "mainstream" or what is considered "popular" music anymore. The radio stations here in Maine play crap for the most part. |

Steve Weiss Music is selling the Chad Smith run for $149! After reading this post, I found their website. http://www.steveweissmusic.com
Has anyone ever dealt with them? I've heard the name mentioned a few times but have never ordered there.
Thanks |

Well I've had the snare for a month now and I have to say I love it. It sounds fantastic.
