I recently found a new DW Edge snare. I play aggresive metal style (i.e. Korn, Mudvayne, AIC) and have been intrigued by these drums.I currently play a Scananavian Birch Sonor snare which is awesome, but after 16 yrs is getting beat down.. My cost on this Edge drum is $575 brand new. Anyone with experience playing these snares? Are these snares road worthy? Thanks for any and all suggs!
