Pearl IP1465 Ian Paice Signature Snare

- How long have you use it?
for 4 months
- What is so special that you like most and least?
her most:
-The sound of the snare drum is powerful, so a consultant to the rocker and its derivatives (hard rock, punk, metal ..).
- The internal mute and screws which block the tension of the skin, the little things that make life easier for a drummer ^ ^
Cons:
Depth, however, requires a good grant, but good with the mute are ways to fix it, for those who are not the head ^ ^
I do not advise jazzeux but hey, when you bought the signing of Ian Paice, I do not think it is to play jazz ^ ^
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I tried all that props in my price range (+ -300 euro) that is to say chad smith signature, the signature jordisson joey (yuck), Omar Hakim and other ...

-How do you price / quality ratio?
Faith, for the price I paid (285 euro in a German mag, I will not name ^ ^) I find the report very good.
-With experience, you do again this choice? ...
YES! it's quite the kind of snare that I tried, powerful and snapping, I play everything to the red hot rock, RATM, punk and sometimes metal, and the fund follows the road well ^ ^

I put 8 because it is still not perfect, it will be just be some degradation over time, but not if we pay attention

- How long have you use it?
About a year

- What is so special that you like most and least?
The sound is powerful and relatively aggressive, ideal for the Rock, Hard Rock or Metal. System against nut on the tie is quite effective.
I do, however, not all-of-no-trigger that a lot of original game and does not get better with time, so I changed to trigger a "TRICK" almost perfect one!
Wishing her a very powerful Rim-shot as Cross-Stick, I also replaced the top with a circle cerlce molded in SONOR.
I was my snare drum is ideal for situations "aggressive"!

- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I tried in stores, different types of references in the field of "fit inside" ... I also have a Pearl Dennis Chambers offers a very rich sound, but rather "Rock", a Pearl Soprano 12 "x7" for situations Funky & a Sonor Jungle Snare-plans for appliances or very soft drinks.

- How would you rate the quality / price?
Pretty decent (I got it in a promo with cover offered ...)! Concerning the quality, the trigger is really Légé for my taste, at least for the price.

- With experience, you do again this choice?
YES! The Ian Paice is well made and seems to be ideally equipped outside the points outlined above ...
