Hi, I will speak of the beast! mine is the same as the natural maple color photo but ... so obviously circles molded maple top quality, all handmade in 6 weeks, the rolls of the snare! One has only to listen to tracks where the guys played on a noble and cooley (regardless of the series, anyway it's always amazing models) example: Phil Collins on "No Son of Mine" by Genesis
This one is 14 "in diameter and 4" 3 / 4 deep ... slap it! it would be a model rather funk rock. This relatively small depth took me to buy a 2nd snare + deep to be comfortable in all styles.
Next, regarding the quality / price, I paid 6000 francs mine 8 years ago and are almost impossible to find is the price of the exception!
After the experiment, yes, I repeat and this one, I keep it, then approaching the first gaffe!
