I like how you have the toms tuned high. The snare sounds great!!!

[2112iscoming]

AMAZING skills! Very Rich/Peart-esque and just as much talent!

[SirhcHtaed]

[MrRitchieDrums]

@SirhcHtaed That was a 24" K. light ride

[TheNewChadSmith]

Nice sounding Snaredrum but you Drumset its tuning to high

[goldsmithexile]

Can I ask please, even though this has modern heads on it, would the original have had calf skins or similar? I often see old drums with calf heads but it puts me off, I wouldnt know where to start with animal skins...!!

shalom, Jonathan

That really is a lovely tasteful snare drum sound. Mellow and warm even though its metal. Nicely recorded too!

[treesnake65]

[MrRitchieDrums]

Mr ritchie.. Great sounding Snare.. wow... What snare is it again - how is the head fitted??? ( reno head i am guessing) - What it the drum kit set up ? sound fantastic.. I am just starting out and looking for a betterkit then my cheap chinese dud??.

[MrRitchieDrums]

@melbournefishing Ludwig brass shell snare that was probably made around 1925. You can see the heads & sizes in my post above......ThanX!!!

[drumbelly]

As Sam used to say, "Nice Trum".

[drumbelly]

Talk about contrasting technology! Basically a handmade snare from the roaring 20's, and a CNC injection molded fiberglass kit from the 2000's LOL! I'm glad to see a fine drum go to a superb player. Enjoy it-Scott H.
