This snare is great. I can tune it high and low, and responds quite well. It has a nice focused sound, very warn and cuts through quite well. It can also be used with different snare wires, at the moment with a wider 42 canopus snare wire. It makes the snare sound quite fat, but yer articulate enough. The quality is great. The only thing I don?t really like is the little screws to fix the snare wires, they are too small. So changing the snare wires requires some patience.
Great snare drum for the price and is USA made!
