Tour of my snares

[willshiznit86]

nice steve gadd licks on the first acrolite!

[W0rder]

Sure. If you want to see my whole set up, check my channel.

Cheers

[SWI0001]

Ok sorry for being a dick.

[dtigers27]

Cool video, dude! Love your kit too. Those acrolites sure are dry. I really like them though. My first acrolite should be here this week!

[W0rder]

@dtigers27 Ah I remember when I recieved my first acrolite... It's always a special feeling because those snare are full of history. Hope you like yours. Tell me !

[SWI0001]

this is a joke and isn't meant to be offencive but if you can only afford a drum kit like that what car do you have a prius?

[W0rder]

@SWI0001 I do not have a car dude, here's the thing.

[IDontUsePicks]

@SWI0001 Thats probably not all of his drums, plus that bass drums and those snares are probably worth double your whole drum set. Alot of people like to minimize for fun and just do the "kick, snare, hat" setup.

[SaltyPenguinAHT]

70s looks miles better than 80s

[dec151974]

I have four Acrolite snare drums as a matter-of-fact. Three of them sound fantastic while the other is out of round from being dropped. These Acrololite snare drums are some of the best snare drums fontastic. Then I own a newer on that some nick name the (blocrolite). This drum has gained a bad rep due to it coating. My opinion is that the newer one I have sounds better then the others I have.

[shootsbraw]

Ludwig LB402BBTWM ( the third snare ), absolutely ragin man !

[RadioJack]

80's acro and BB win in my opinion.

[sticksbass]

do they all have the same heads and are they all tuned the same tensions?

[Almost13music]

what snare is at 4:51?

[DemonDrummerAB]

Great beats!

I have a 70's Acrolite too...what heads did you use in this video for this snare?

[fluffyninjas]

I have a Ludwig snare that belonged to my older brother that I found sitting in th barn loft, I took it to my local music shop to get fixed, andit has a blue and olive badge on it. I asked my bro and he said it was about 20 years old. It's chrome, but has nothing else and I found it with a Ludwigdb-300 bottom head on it. can anyone tell me an idea of what it is? thanks

[parkoanime]

@fluffyninjas if you send me a pic i might be able to tell u what model it is

[fluffyninjas]

@parkoanime watch my video with my drum kit its the snare in that one

[mrboverbro]

nice

the last 1 is sweet

Ludwig LB402BBTWM sounded like crap

[BillyTalentRocks2010]

hey man i love your 70s acrolite wat head is that?

[shvm27]

the last one i like best.

[randompersonsband1]

nice snares, wheres the rest of the set?

[BillyTalentRocks2010]

he took it off to show off the snares. you'll be surprised with what you can do with just a snare and kick drum.

[keilan303]

The last snare does it for me, great cracky sound and nice "ping", you need to hammer the rims more :) Great recording too, drums should sound like this on record more...

[shvm27]

totally agree

[boosh222]

I have a 1964 Ludwig Acrolite... Best snare I've ever owned, bought it used for $150

[randompersonsband1]

thats expensive but worth it. i got a 1968 acrolite at a garage sale for 5 bucks. lucky find i guess

[thebladeofdeath]

my bassist (who is a drummer on the side) found an 80's acrolite in the trash, with a case and everything. It sounds great and we're even recording with it.

[DeatxstrokeBlade]

When I saw your video, I decided to buy a Ludwig Acrolite Snare ´70. Now my Ludwig Kit (all of 70´s too) is complete!

What a sound! Thanks from México City.

[W0rder]

I'm glad you bought one dude !

Hope you're enjoying it, ludwig is making some awesome stuff !

[noahwayne]

The pearl wins this one - its got the pop, the warmth and the right amount of crack.

[michoi2]

what camera do you, use is it the cameras mic in the video

[W0rder]

No, the mic is a Zoom H4 dude !

[WhiteboySpecial]

Rep on that linear Gadd fill you're playing!

[FaithIsAccidental]

Wow that 'Ludwig LB402BBTWM' has a very Bonham feel to it. Subscribed :)

[etherealeyes]

what is the physical difference between the two acrolites?

[W0rder]

Yo !

The 70"s is totally ribband, whereas the 80"s is a "Powder Coating" grey finition.

Bob

[idektron]

70's acrolite is my fave, nice and crispy..

[ChuckPaulsen658]

What size bass drum is that, it looks like a 22, but it sounds like a monster!

[W0rder]

Yo !

It's only a 22*18. Very minuscious tuned, with a Powerstroke 3 batter & a Ambassador resonnant with a small O-ring, and very important : nothing inside the bbass drum ! This is the most important thing for me. You have to let your bass drum breathe.

Thanks a lot one more time, c ya.

[nicdaspic]

I own the same 70's Acro, and I absolutely love it.

[W0rder]

Thank you very much for all of your comments !!

I really like them !

[W0rder]

A Sabian XS20 14".

Bob

[NeilPeartisGod14]

What kind of high-hat are you using?

[AggressiveC]

Nice try, STEVE GADD!

[TakashiKashikura]

the 80s sound a little muffle. did you put muffle it more than the 70s?

[SWITCHSK8R]

i have the last snare and its great. got it for 50 bucks from some guy. but its a 69.

[bchucho]

both acros are amazing.

btw nice ghost notes

[Mahavishnu80]

Ludwig Acrolite 80's

[TibtheBear]

the second is pretty crisp too

[TibtheBear]

last one sounds crispiest

[homerun47]

61/2 supra is the best!!

[notimetokill]

70s acrolite won.

[SabianAHX]

as usual

[NeilPeartisGod14]

I got one of them off of ebay for 30 dollars!

Excellent condition.

[pookie748]

i like that last snare

[badarcticmonkey093]

the acrolite 80's sounds the best.
