    Very nice!!! I like the P86 option too and it looks a though the center of the throw-off does make contact with the center bead right? The stock P85 clears the center bead by at least two inches I can't wait for your first impression of the snare.

    What do you mean? it doesn't splay? What good is a new drum if you're not going to splay it? A fancy drum like that should be splayed every chance you get.

    Play the SONG......not the DRUMS!!!

    "I think that feeling is a lot more important than technique. It's all very well doing a triple paradiddle - but who's going to know you've done it? If you play technically you sound like everybody else. It's being original that counts." ~ John Bonham

    I've never owned a BB but I have splayed a few and I sure do like to splisten to them.

    Way to go Bish.

    Since I got my 1st Black Beauty around '63-64, they are what I've used about 90% of the time. The other 10%, I used Supras.

    Splendid! Used to have a Supra. Wish I still had it. First time I've seen a P-86. Looks like a huge improvement.

    You're going to like that. How does it feel to spend almost as much on your snare as you did on the shell pack it's being paired with?
