Would love to see a proper review of the Reference and Reference Pure lines - maybe contrasted with the more conventional Masters line - because the concept for the Reference and Reference Pure lines (different wood compositions and edges for different drum sizes) is intriguingly logical. There are no reviews out there which do a good enough job of actually putting the concept to the test against something more conventional, but a DCP review would absolutely do it.

When it came to the head-to-head section, I like the Cherry snare more than the others. All of them had some overtones at the lower tunings that I did not love - that head-to-head was a nice mid-point for them all (for me). Cool video for sure - Pearl does nice work!! Thanks!

No disrespect to the other drummers on this channel (all good), but Tony... you tend to have the tastiest licks. Great playing as always. Pearl has always been a great company. Their hardware is second to none and seeing these snares... well... what can you say? Great stuff.
@munton51503 жыл бұрын
The cherry was my favorite. Nothing against the stave craft but it sounded a little bit dull to my ear. I think the shell is too thick and chokes the sound a little. It might work really well in a live sitting where you have a very large room and you need it to project really well.

The Stavecraft is very very similar to the Italian Drum Art both as construction and sound. I prefer MCC, sounds more articulate and defined. To be honest though the MCT is still a great best buy. SC and MCC aren't worth double the price. Keep going Tony, you're the best tester:)

The Stavecraft drum sounded the best at the low tuning - solid, with lots of body. OTOH, the Music City Solid turned to mush at the low tuning. The Masters Maple did everything well - the best all-round performer of the three. BTW, nice playing, Tony!

I myself have two second hand kits and yes this is correct. However it's nice sometimes to have a new kit with warranty and available up to date add ons.... I have a mapex Orion kit from 1999 and finding a 10" tom in that finish is damn near impossible. Valid point though.

@@larrytate1657 well, the reason is reducing costs of production (less time consuming, less material, etc), but I agree, it also sounds best for me. I'm not a big fan of the "boutique drum hype" (even if they sound good and look gorgeous, I don't deny that), especially when there are dozens of line production drums that sound awesome and work as well or better than the others. Almost everything that we're used to listen to and love of our favourite albums and drummers is recorded with (good quality) standard instruments, and even most of "signature drums" are essentially a pretty standard shell with a different finish or in some cases, just some specific piece of hardware.

@@isihernandez9752 the reasons are not only costs productionwise, but to build a product with low maintenance to satisfy the customer. To overcome compensations or exchange. Solid shells and Stave Constructions tend to fail after a while. Like bending (solid) or the glue loosing it's adhesive strenght in stave drums.
