I use this snare for 3 years, whether live or in studio once masters level sound, (and this is no small feat), the "bte" provided a power and a sound Plutt atypical.
A warm and powerful, for good middle room is ample over head! For more great scene prvoir not forget a tripod to the microphone because the circle does not accept oversize tongs microphone. (Little practical info!).
Personally I play in a rock band and the girl follows the road well, the sound is unusual but it's really a matter of taste, depth and 8-ply these offers him a warm, and the circle wooden vintage, allows incomparably shot a rhyme. For its sonority is a matter of taste ...
Furthermore it is once again a matter of taste but we love to look at or hates it!
Level qualitprix report, its still a signature so the price is lev rv I personally and I thank the friend eBay!
I would not change it for anything in the studio she produces a common gold, despite a snare arm provision, with good Eng is happiness, happiness is a look at it exeption of a snare drum. Thank you Akira!
