Right, quoting myself now...Just home from a gig where I used this drum. Great ring on the rim shots, big and brassy. Loved that, but not sure if I like the sound when hit in the centre. Has a kind of thin sound and a bit tinny and rattley, which doesn't sound like the right way to describe a wood shell snare, but I think I need to tweak it more. DaddyNowhere, could you show me pic of the snare beds on yours? I'm wondering if I should do something there. All I can say at this point is not bad. Not good, but not bad. More work required, methinks...
Fair enough, sometimes it takes a long time to get it sounding just right, so I get where you're coming from.I used brushes quite a bit last night, and the sound wasn't bad. The sticks didn't do it for me however, but then I've only just started using this drum, so looks like there's a lot more work ahead! Thanks for sharing though, you've got a really nice kit!
I've got a Pioneer like that - never could get a sound I liked out of it. Suppose it depends what you're looking for.
