building my own custom kit slowly

[Dominic]

So 10 months in as a beginner and I feel I want to move from my electronic kit and eventually phase to a real acoustic kit.

Particularly I would like to get (breakables) that I can take to jam nights, gigs,etc
Building up all the nice components to a really good kit.

So for the last couple of months I've been looking at snares in particular

This one, by sonor, seems to be my style looks wise and budget/quality

Plan to use it for most genres of music, I.e rock, funk, heavy rock but rarely heavy metal these days lol

Just wondering what people's thoughts are. Good snare?

[Dominic]

Anybody?

If you like the looks and the sound then it's the right snare for you. Sonor makes nice drums. I like the tube lugs.

That's a good looking drum. I've never heard a bad Sonar snare drum, actually. I think you'll be pleased with it!

Have you actually played one?

It looks nice.

You need to find a drum shop and actually give them a bash, from there you will know if you want a plywood shell, fibreglass shell, stave drum or solid one piece unit.

Then go price hunting
