Clever. What a neat stage trick. R.I.P. Mr. Barbata

I don't think I ever met Mr. Ginther. But I used to watch the Raiders practice behind the Nabisco building in NE Philly in the late 60s. They practiced very late at night. I played snare in a ragtag Corps. And oh how we admired the Raiders. Their drum line was incredible.

This is traditional, solid military derived snare drumming, pure and straightforward. The back sticking and fancy stuff on snare drums tuned up almost to the breaking point just doesn’t sound good to my ear. This man was playing a SNARE DRUM (oh really, a field drum… A tenor drum?) with a very traditional sound. Still the most powerful and the best way of playing rudimental snare drumming. -Greg Burrows

I have run into a similar situation and what I believe to be a late 60s kits found in the trash. I have completely stripped the shells. I believe they’re made out of mahogany. 13”, 16” &24” . Pretty thick shells. I would like to restore them. Where would i get hardware? Need Tom mounts, bass spurs, etc. The hardware is a little rusted and pitted. I’d like to get new hardware it doesn’t have to be slingerland necessarily. Thank you!

Excellent! I ditched my practice pads for a Remo Rhythm Lid. The sticks I finally found that fit my big hands are the Vic Firth "Beast" Corpmaster, but you are absolutely right about the finish: too dry. I'm tempted to try out some Homer Formsby on them. Thanks Ed! Cheers, Jack

That was fun Ed. Kinda wish you had hit them all with the snares off. Were they all at the same pitch? I have those, except the Dyna. The Slingy I have, is a '75, 6 1/2 deep Krupa model like yours. Hands down the best crack of my metal snares. Great playing as usual!

@TheDrumslinger 3 ай бұрын

Good point, I should have played snares off as well. I don't try to match the pitch, I just tune the drum to where it seems best to me. Like I said in the video, I do like them tight.

@spraudoggy 3 ай бұрын

In summary, how does the metal and plating over the metal affect the overall sound? It appears low and high volume is a metric for comparison?

@TheDrumslinger 3 ай бұрын

The shell material makes a big difference in the tone/timbre. But the chrome plating is negligible. You can get a brass shell that is raw and it will sound like a chrome plated shell. Big differences are noticeable between steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and acrylic. Wood shell drums can have a finish wrap or be "natural" and the tone difference is undetectable to me.

I've noticed that too about Ludwig metal snares--I think it has to do with the really wide snare beds

@TheDrumslinger 3 ай бұрын

I think you are on to something. Ludwig kept using deep snare beds, like for older calf head drums, long after the introduction of plastic heads.

The curled pinky on the left hand call Bobby Thompson was big on that. When I play snare drum I use the Bobby Thompson grip, I was taught by some of his students. My flight schedule with the Floyd Bennett golden eagles from Brooklyn New York 1960 1961 from the New York Skyliners, Eric perilous technique. Those were the days of rudimental drummers. Today more into visuals like juggling. John dowling, may he rest in peace was a good friend of mine he taught many of the top rudimental drum lines in the nation. He is the person who developed back sticking use the first time with the Air Force, drum quartet taking first place, I believe it was 1960. John flowers, John Dowling, dick filkins, I forget the fourth drummer❤❤❤❤
