Do different snare strainers alter the snare response differently? This notion has been making it's debut inside my wrinkled brain for about a week now.
Case in point. My walnut snare has this big block of metal on it AKA the Sonor dual glide strainer.
I would say my walnut snare response is different from all the rest of my Guru snares. A little sloppier to my ear. The strainer, like all Sonor's hardware, is comically overbuilt, JMO.
So the question is...does anyone think a light (in weight) snare strainer makes for a crisper response than a heavier snare strainer with the same amount of tension? Assume the same shell and heads for an imagined apples to apples comparison.
I'm going with a hard maybe
