Longjohn - Here's your drum, buddy:

If the one you're looking at has a 'bargain price' on it, I'd grab it. Hammered brass snares are nice, dry drums. Almost 'woody' tone to them.

Good luck...

John

Too many great drums to list here!

LOL - I guess I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box anymore...took me a little while to figure that one out! Funny, hadn't noticed that.

Yes, ''kick"-a$$... Yes Sir

Well,

I did win this little beauty, and at a good price.. I do feel a little guilty as the seller really had no idea what it was that they were selling, eg: "acoustic snare drum and stand (gold colour)".. It turns out that this is a recent model & the stand is the top model Gibraltar & still current.. Not a mark on either short of a few fingerprints here and there.

I am impressed at the tonal variation which is quickly attainable & the die cast rims have a nice feel to them.. I need only to fit an internal damper & come up with the right head combo.. this will be a keeper for sure..

thanks Purdie for a "steer in the right direction"..

Cheers from downunder..
