    Default God I love when Fed Ex visits my house- New DW Snare!

    I have been coveting this snare for months. My previous snare was an 80's Acrolite, which was very nice, but only 14X5...I was on the fence between this and a couple different Ludwigs...plus my GC has a DW Edge snare that was close to a grand at xmas time that they now how have tagged for an amazingly cheap price- but it's 14X6 and i prefer a 6.5.

    So i pulled the trigger on this bad boy last week and it arrived today. DW Collector's Nickel over brass with chrome hardware 14X6.5- It is amazing...
    I'm going to let this head break in for a while before i change it. [IMG][/IMG]

    You know, that was the snare i would have bought if i had an extra $300 to spend. It is a little brighter than a BB, but still punches like Mike Tyson and can caress like, uhhmmm- I dunno, Megan Fox?

    oh that is super gorgeous!!


    I tried so hard to convince the wife to let me buy that DW Concrete snare drum... it was listed at $900... she wasn't going for it. haha

    Great pick up man! Also jealous of those beautiful 9000 pedals

    Congrats!! That is an incredible looking (and sounding, I'm sure) snare drum. I'm a big fan of brass snares and it sure looks like you've got yourself a beauty.

    And I agree - there is nothing sweeter than seeing that FedEx or UPS truck pull into your driveway. Closest thing to feeling like a kid at Christmas that I can think of.

    Thanks boys! I have been upgrading my kit from the outside in since the fall. Started with cymbals and stands, then pedals. Now this beast! Shell pack is next. I am on the fence between a DW performance and Ludwig Keystone...

    This clip does give a good idea of what she can do. It is stunning to look at in person, the thing just flat out sounds amazing at this price point.

    Very nice!

    Congratulations.

    I listened to the video and the different tunings. They all 3 sounded good to my ears.

    Forward thinking....you should probably get two more so you can have all 3 tunings available anytime.

    Well done on the purchase.

    I just picked up the same drum used but like new off Ebay for a great price. It's an amazing sounding snare, fat but with nice high end and crack. I really like mine.
