All the best with your playing.CLICK OR TAP HERE TO SEE AND HEAR THIS DRUM SHELL PACK! I suspect there are preferences rather than concrete answers, but there are some very knowledgeable people on this forum who might have more specific answers for you. Is there a snare drum shell material that best suits a specific playing space and/or style of music? I don't know. The difference between the timber and metal drums should provide a useful contrast, and I think the tones from a metal shell would suit a lot of the songs we play. I'm tempted to explore the Ludwig BB or Acrolite. So, I'm not really positioned to answer your question because I only rely on two snare drums when I'm gigging. If we play only acoustic material, I use a different kit to the one I'd use if I was playing only rock music.
As the night cranks up and people begin to party, I'll turn to the Brady - again, not because of volume, but for feel and vibe. Not from a volume perspective but more for warmth and feel. It's a beautifully versatile snare drum that (to be honest) works in nearly every playing context.Īt gigs like weddings, we normally begin playing acoustic instrumental stuff at lower volume. In larger (or outdoor) venues with similar miking, I use the Brady. I find the DW is perfect for this setting. Most of the gigs I play are in smaller sized clubs with minimal miking (e.g. The snare drums I use when I'm gigging are a Brady 14 x 5.5 jarrah ply and a DW 14 x 6.5 Collectors Series, depending on where and what music I'm playing. I play the drums (normally) at practice or at home. My collection is pretty much that: a collection. I'm not sure if that helps you any - I hope it does. I think its strength (or best context) is in a rock type of set-up. Having said that, you could easily become accustomed to it on this drum. I don't mind that type of sound when it's from a deeper shell. There's a broad wet vibe with mid-range tuning. Nothing major, and nothing a different set of snare wires or batter head change wouldn't fix. Lower down the tuning range I found the sound a little bit "tubby", if you know what I mean. Not the same degree of focus and clarity, to my ears, compared to my regular snare (Brady ply 14 x 5), and I preferred tuning it up rather high to get the cut and attack I prefer. I found the sound of this snare drum to have a very broad and open sound. I haven't played the Fibes or Ludwig acrylics so I don't have a reference for comparison, I sorry, so what follows is entirely subjective. I think that RCI collaborated with DW on these there aren't many about. I like the sound of the acrylic but it is different to the snares I play in practice or at gigs.

I’m not an expert.) Like all of us here, drumming has brought me many years of fun times, friendships and memories. There’s no reasoning behind the sequencing of the photos and I can’t guarantee the accuracy of the information I have posted with them, so please keep this in mind. I’ve been collecting drums for a number of years, though it seems that these days I spend more time collecting than I do playing.

I had some free time today and thought I’d share some photographs of my limited edition DW snare drums.
