Great sounding drum. Wonderful drumming. Nice promotion for a terrific sounding drum . You make a fine spokesman Collin. You spoke through this instrument in a way that inspires this old guy to keep drumming.

Can you put kevlar bottom heads from American drum corps style drums on these? I wasn't sure if the metal snares would even rattle well against something tensioned so high?

[@redbarondrums9448]

Ooo interesting question! My honest thought is that they would be too thick and not resonate as well. These drums are thick and have a very deep pitch, some of that is from the build and some from bottom head tuning. That being said I’m all for experimentation so if you do try it out let me know how it sounds!

@@redbarondrums9448 i need to get ahold of a pipe band snare but ill keep it in mind haha. But your theory is what I was thinking, it would probably have a hard time rattling, but I dont know.

@@gavin_bigred Nice, do some surfing on EBay or Craigslist as well. Sometimes some steals second hand.

Will a normal snare stand be okay? I'm 5'7"

[@redbarondrums9448]

Yep! Any marching snare stand will be fine.

Price?

[@redbarondrums9448]

No listing on the website, but I’d say around $1K USD
