Ok I bought this snare because of the size, and I didn't own a Birch drum yet. I am a HUGE fan of Deep snares, with a 14x8 or 14x12 maple snares being the standard live go to choices for me currently. I saw this online from a local shop, but it wasn't on display. It's one of the Pearl Snare of the Month drums from a while back. I'd been wanting a new snare and when I saw it online I had to go check it out in person.
It's pretty nice and I'm digging it now it's on my kit I use for practice. It reminds me of a 14x8 with a little more crack but less depth, maybe thats the birch too? I'd love to hear how this sounds on a recording, and I'll be gigging it twice this month to see how it stands up to live use. Here are a few crappy pics and thats all glare from a shirt on the drum throne in the 2nd pic. I usually don't like 13's as I'm currently trying to unload my 13x7, but this is a keeper. Oh and the Piano black finish looks killer in person.
