I like the look of this drum and it is well-built, but it has a nasty ring that is impossible to get rid of. In order to get rid of it, I had to install a muffle ring.
I wish the drum were playable, but it is not. Overtones in this drum were so loud that they couldn't be eliminated. It was taken to a friend's professional recording studio to try out new heads, dampeners, etc. Upon finding myself experiencing this issue, I went online and found others who also had the same problem.
Despite its fragile state, it arrived intact. The design and a few small details are quite nice, and it sounds quite well. For $299, I've seen the same snare drum in Sydney and Canberra as well. The price I paid for it was $152, which I got for $150. This item is very good for the money I paid. With an Evans head at [, you can hear its sound. It is possible to see the listing under MrLatinDrums. *Thanks to Amazon for keeping Global Trade alive!.
I did change the batter head to an evans dry vent before using the amp. The amp sounds fantastic out of the box.
My favorite thing about this drum is how high the tuning can be, and the color is fantastic (that is different for every drummer).
Overall, not too Keeping it clean.
The drum line at his school is led by my grandson, who is 12. A big hit with him! During a parade in New Orleans, he will be performing with his school! The new drum will definitely show off his love for it!.
The snare is great! This is so cool!.
