DCP Royal Drumble | The Ultimate Snare Drum Competition - Round 10

[@RecordingDrumsWithBrad]

By far this round was the most challenging. All of them sound great. I'll go with the Ludwig Universal Beech.

[@CornerStoreDrums]

DCP with yet another piece of top shelf content! The Ludwig is phenomenal!! 🥁🥁

[@RobertLamontagne-qd8bo]

I chose the Gretsch Ridgeland as my favorite. How-ever, they all sounded good!! I was very surprised how well the Ludwig Universal was “right there” w/ the others especially being the least costly of this group. I appreciate the effort DCP puts into the Royal Drumble which also allows us drummers to compare snares that we possibly would like to purchase & hear them in comparison to other snares!! After my years of collecting snares drums, sometimes our eye’s pic over ears?? Nice job DCP

[@drumpower8510]

Love the drumble! I'm going for the pearl reference

[@MarkMonolithOfficial]

They all sound amazing but give this one to the Pearl Reference One

[@Ben-ic1ve]

The Pearl reference one gets my vote. It’s is the one for me

[@remander3873]

I'm a Gretsch guy, but I preferred the Pearl Reference One in this contest. BTW, I finally got to visit DCP last week while on vacation in NE! Amazing place you folks have! 🤘😎🥁

[@thepluggy1]

The Pearl Refrence for me. But hell, they all sounded good though. Bit the Pearl is the winner I think

[@bubinga3106]

All were good, but I am most pleased with the Pearl reference one.

[@terryhu57]

Pearl, Gretsch, British, Ludwig

[@michaelgolikov]

Great lineup as always. Digging Pearl the most

[@MarinedrummerSGT]

Ludwig #1, overall best sound, looks great. Gretsch#2, Pearl#3, this snare has an after- ring especially on high tuning. Nice color. Would have liked to see all the same size snares. Good job, love DCP

[@jaimesegura-hv2dz]

I liked the Ludwig the best and the Gretsch a close second then Pearl and British

[@LouProsperi]

It's the Gretsch Ridgeland for me this time.

[@arieslove6144]

Pearl ' no 1. Then Bdc then Ludwig

[@ohigginssz8146]

1. Ludwig--before a note was played, it is breathtaking. Versatile, lush tones 2. British Drum Company--satisfying tone, it cuts! 3. Pearl--another visual beauty, great sound 4. Gretsch--I had a Gretsch snare similar to this (3 ply from Ridgeland factory) years ago but it never sounded this good

[@andreasbauman1132]

Gretsch for me if I must choose! Pearl in the lower tuning also great.

[@natemccloskey4214]

All great snares, but I think it’s the Gretsch Ridgeland for me

[@joetrollson]

My heartfelt vote goes for the Brithis Drum Co.'s Super 7. So beautiful in sound and appearance. Thank you so much for the Drumbles. It's drum porn at its finest.

[@AdamStachelek]

Gotta go Gretsch on this one. Some Gretsch snares just have a delicious density.

[@philclarklive2910]

1. Ludwig 2. Pearl 3. BDC 4. Gretsch

[@justhadrums]

Gretsch has a lil something extra imo

[@Montuirii]

I'm loving the Ludwig ...!!!❤

[@larrymason2112]

Ludwig this week.

[@DrummerPayne1979]

I'll have to go with the British Drum Company Super 7. Sounds amazing in both tunings.

[@SPACEMAN_fkYT]

They all sounded good to me. It was tough between Ludwig and Gretsch. 1) Gretsch Ridgeland 2) Ludwig Universal Beech 3) Pearl Reference 4) BDC Super

[@TheCapedCrusader94]

Really like the sound of the Gretsch.

[@80sFreestyle]

Ludwig Universal Beech sounded best to me.

[@pinelybones]

The British Super 7 takes it for me. 13” diameter so that it can handle higher tunings comfortably, and 7” deep for some extra low-end smack. My favorite snare size by far

[@scotttucker8127]

The British Drum company drum for me pile drived the rest into unconsciousness and pinned the rest for the 3 count for the win, what consistency even with just the room mics alone.

[@josephandrachick1774]

gotta be pearl reference one

[@96ejames]

This might be the closest one yet. Gonna go with Pearl at #1, but that Ludwig Universal Beech is a close second

[@cajundaddy64]

Gretsch Ridgeland, New Englander in shorts on Oct 8....Highly suspect.🤔

[@BS050]

BDC PEARL LUDWIG GRETSCH

[@IrenESorius]

Pearl Reference 💖

[@maxmorlock4118]

Tough one, but I would go for the Ludwig

[@DenOfTimbsllc]

I give the super 7 the win, just has the best range of tone, if I had to pick a number two I would say Ludwig is number 2.

[@Stachi-Panzer]

Veeery close this time. 1) Ludwig 2) Pearl 3) Gretsch 4) BDC

[@misplacedmemories22]

The Gretsch wins it for me, followed closely by the Ludwig, then the Pearl, and then the British Drum Co. They were all so close though.

[@Theratron]

The Gretsch for me. Much more sensitive than the Ludwig, which you can clearly hear in the head 2 head. And it just brings out the sound of the wood the most. The Pearl is a close second though.

[@RadgeCanary]

BDC Super 7 for me. Pearl second

[@drummingken-chan8636]

Gretch sounded the best then Pearl on the video. But, I would have to visit the store and actually play it myself to see the difference. Thank you.

[@blakeatkins3159]

Gretsch, ludwig, British, pearl

[@ivanbajovic3476]

Pearl

[@jonashellborg8320]

Gretsch USA Custom

[@mrwillbaker]

Gretsch Ridgeland

[@RogerRocha-us2wj]

As much as I like the Pearl Reference series, I'm gonna go w/the British Beat snare drum.

[@florentdugain1770]

I'm a Pearl guy for this time ❤DCP

[@osamashaikh6530]

I will go with Gretsch Ridgeland

[@sega.milkis]

Ludwig for the win

[@BMdrumz]

Pearl # 1

[@wadedixon9890]

Gretsch Ridgeland followed by British Drum Company.

[@F00Lsmack]

British 7 was most unique for me.

[@joeypeacock1673]

My old ears loved the Gretsch.

[@mkeobrien2143]

Ludwig Universal!

[@PRjimc]

Pearl, most likely, but I liked the British a lot as well.

[@crmacjr]

Have to go Ludwig beech for all that body.

[@eeulau]

Lugwig all day

[@guillermoperezgerman]

My vote goes to British 13x7

[@steverichdrummr]

Soundwise, I would have to give it to the Gretsch.(but by a mm or two.) Looks wise, didn't really care for the other 3 anyway, but the Pearl has the strainer out too far for my taste. So, Gretsch for the win.

[@ronaldzeoli7528]

Gretsch number 1 British drum number2

[@honourisdrumming]

British Drum Co for the win!

[@brianwilson4367]

I like the BDC Super 7

[@mach1man001]

It's the Gretsch for me!

[@daltonidaho]

Very tough round! I actually can't choose a winner out of the Ludwig, Gretsch, and Pearl, but I can say the British Drum Company was my least favourite.

[@obliclinks5822]

Nice vid! I liked the Ludwig the least.

[@georgeguest397]

I love the Gretsch

[@brianhansen6561]

British Super 7

[@andreaskanto3084]

Honestly I dont understand that a ringy snare is a thing. For me it is challenging. I give my vote to Gretsch for being good in both low and high tuning.

[@jamespenney9375]

Gretsch and Ludwig were very close for me but the Gretsch wins it this time.

[@RoosterDrums]

BDCis for me!

[@magroves]

Gretsch baby!

[@joeldrummer23]

Ludwig

[@Matt-io3uz]

British drum co, then Pearl.

[@munton5150]

Gretsch

[@rsmittee]

And the winner is... Pearl Reference!

[@DaxRushlow]

Gretsch!!!!

[@kkfrdm]

Gretsch!!!

[@ryanwalsh8704]

Pearl !

[@chrisferrandino9563]

LUDWIG!!!!!!

[@soko1450]

All sound great but the Pearl has that fat crack that always perks my ears

[@scotttucker8127]

Pearl Shmerl you guys need your hearing checked

[@Toospoonbig283]
