Sonor Limited Edition 13"x7" Snare Drum

This is my sonor ltd edition 13"x7" snare drum. It's in marine pearl white with black hardware. Sounds fantastic. It has a remo stock head on it and the same in clear for the reso. I used a 5A Zildjian Dip Hickory drum stick. Got it from Talkin Headz in Woburn, UK. Got it for £129.99 great value for its price. I would give it 4.99/5 the only slight tiny thing thats bad is that it rings a little after you stop playing. I got moongel for it and its now gone, Moongel is something that is well worth getting if you have a rubbish kit like me that rings like mad. Recomended to all levels.

This is a perfect example of somebody who purchases drums for name and idealistic purposes, and not based on knowledge. One of the things that you brought up is that this snare has resonance, and that this is a bad thing. That is a common misconception amongst beginners. EVERY drum has resonance. If a drum didn't have resonance, it would sound dead and flat. Learning to control those overtones is one of the primary factors in turning drums. Let resonance work in your favor, not against you

@bonbon668 Will check them out when they appear.

There's some videos where you can hear my snare on the user/krk37metal channel.

@TheFiery yeaah i have that, i just tightened the snare wire but i like a lot of crack so it was fine but i know waat you mean btw look out new videos uploaded them but stupid 10 min thing so i have to split up :/ will be up soon :)

@bonbon668 I'd stretched out my stock batter head noticeably after a couple of rehearsals and a gig. It was still usable, but I didn't like it anyway, so off it went. I used an Evans Power Center first, but I didn't like it that much. I tried Evans EC Snare next and I'm loving it.

I had some problems with snare buzz and weird snare overtones with the stock reso head, so I had to detune the lugs closest to the snare bed. Once I replaced it with Evans 300 Hazy I had no more trouble.

@TheFiery yeaah atm i still have the stock heads but theyre quite basic unfortunatley they seem to be tought and durable so it might be some time before i get some new heads doubt i'll swich reso cba + more money and i tuned my bottom one because i like that fat vintage sound and youd think that i'd get that by de-tunning the reso a little but parently not so how are you finding yours now youve had it a while?

[bonbon668]

@TheFiery Cheers, yeaah it is orgasmic and the camera is crap but thanks yeaah i do have stock heads on atm but im gonna change soon cause the head starting to go might go to a remo black x , i think thats wat its called basicallly the snare version of the ebony. wat colour did ya get?

[TheFiery]

@bonbon668 That's interesting.

I went with a slightly lower reso on my Sonor LE 13"×7" because I didn't want too much snare sound. But I do have to say your snare sounds very good in this video.

Do you still have the stock heads on?

[bonbon668]

@TheFiery naa thts fine i tune the reso head 1 turn tighter on each lug to give a fatter sound on the top

[TheFiery]

Sorry, I completely forgot about this video and the question I asked. I was also interested in how you tune the bottom head relative to the top. Is it higher, lower, same pitch?

[bonbon668]

yeaah i was looking at them im getting a new kit in summer and will prob get new cymbals im liking the aax stages, z custom and a custom cannot decide anyone got any one of these im leaning more towards zildjians cause i love my zbt's soo much hmmm tough choice
