I use this snare drum a few years now. I absolutely love the richness of its sound: it is metal, so with great force, and many harmonics. Can be mitigated, depending on the setting and the skins used, but it was really what I wanted, a high-pitched, clear and powerful and really recognizable. The rim shots are second to none! I tried several other models before buying, but I really cracked on it because of its affordability and what the very rich. Of course, this is not the high end of the snare, and it is not without flaws (the patch tends to curl a little, but again a good setting is used to mitigate). The value is the most honest!
This snare is exactly what I wanted: a compromise between the high-pitched sounds and packed with harmonic and power and projection due to the thickness of 5. "It is a snare to try, the choice will depend on final taste. So for me, yes, I would do this choice!
