Three Supras

Well, almost. Actually 1 Acrolite and 2 Supras. Not calling this a definitive sound off, but I think it gives at least a few clues to the character of the well known Ludwig snares.

Sounds really great! Thanks for that. In March I picked up a supraphonic - not a vintage one though, it came with the bonham vistalite "reissue" kit I bought. Anyway, I was curious about how you had yours tuned? I have been experimenting with different tunings on mine and, although it sounds good, it doesnt sound quite as nice as yours do.

thanks again,

james
