LUDWIG 3x13" Jazz Combo snare drum demo 

Lol was not expecting the low tuning at the start 😂😂

Great drum but Carter could play a rotting raccoon carcass and it would sound amazing.

Your playing makes the drum sound better, if that even possible, lol.

You are the tastiest drummer on RU-vid. Holy shit

Love the hi hat clutch ...can anybody tell me what type of hi hat clutch this is??

@0:58 is some of the most relaxed and fresh syncopation I’ve ever heard

Hey! I have something in common with Carter McLean...we both wear jammy pants while drumming! Oh, who am I kidding. He even wears his jammy pants better than I do...

Excelente,beautifull.With 2 drums you showed creativity,fluidity,musicallity and youre only testing the drums.The internet is full with garage bashers with their 100mp/h doublle pedals and 324piece drum kits and 30piece cymbals and they all sound the same.Btw mid tuning is cool..👍from Croatia.

Came for the snare, stayed for the hihat!

Carter McLean’s dictionary:Demo= Best drum solo thrown in world history.

*Casually shreds the drums*

Hes the 2019 drumner!! That sound!!!!!! Aprouch, groove, dynamics!!!!!!!!!

I once owned a '66 4x14 downbeat in the same marine pearl finish. Sold it to a drum collector.. I'm now slightly more stupid....On a side note, these lugs were notorious for shifting during tensioning, and sometimes the interior lug screw would snap, break, or shave the insert hole making it bigger over time from tuning. Other than that slight annoyance, these snare drums are legendary, sound phenomenal as you can clearly hear, and looked really cool..

i just can't believe your playing man, seriously what a flow

I’ve always liked my 13x3 piccolos because they have so much range. This Ludwig is incredibly versatile with the old head on it, and of course Maestro McLean bringing it to life does it absolute justice..

Anyone ever actually use the jazz combo piccolo for jazz?

The groove is impeccable and your ear for tuning is great!!!

High tuning FTW. Love that sound! And your effortless grooving helps too. :)

this video is a sampling gold mine

Wonderful sounds and playing! Piccolos sound great tuned low - I think they can have a great fat 'rock' sound for a backbeat. I have a 14 x 9 which is nowhere near as nice. A deep shell seems to give too many overtones and needs damping, which results in a less impressive sound, to my humble ears. With pp jazz playing and higher tuning it seems a bit less responsive, maybe because the heads are so far apart? I wonder if the reason deep drums are so popular is that they look much more macho and impressive than wimpy little 'piccolos' ? Even the name seems a bit lame 😏

That kick.. damn.

You make everything sound amazing. As for the snare, during the different tunings, Did you change the tuning of the bottom head, too?

I dont get why we play bigger snares today just to fuck them up in the mix in the end. Without seeing the video I would have never even thought about a Piccolo in the low and med tuning. Seems like a Piccolo and someone to tune it like Carter is a must have for a versatile recording studio.

Small boi with big flavor

a 17" kick????? i didnt even know those existed

3:37 is hard

Y does every sing drum you play sound great? I’m genuinely confused

ohhh weee! Tashty groove at the front end. Great sound too!

Again .....more & more very impressive sensitive drumming.......

Carter, all your videos are amazing! Can you give us some insight into how you are tuning or setting up the bottom snare heads? All these snares sound great and respond so well to your playing! Thanks

Steve Jordan's snare on Waiting On The world To Change.

What a smooth cat. Great sound and playing, sir. Real smooth.

Fantastic, as always. Love the holiday pants!!

three words. YOU ARE INSPIRING

so much feel, sounds amazing!

0:58 Those first 2 hits for that fill were heavy. Damn, now I need to practice that.

all i can think about is that hi-hat clutch

That snare sounds THIK Does it have any muffling?

Best bass drum sound ever. Classic

As Always.. gorgeous touch dude. I own a 13x3 brass snare, how should I tune the reso head to get the best sensitivity/body balance? Cheers from Italy ✌️

Am I the only person who likes low tuning sound in this video? BTW Carter is great as always

Your playing is smooth as butter.

Damn...you're on fire on this

Your product demos are the best out there.

Very nicely done! Wouldn’t mind hearing the drum with the snare off just to get a sense of its’ natural resonance.

Man i love your beats. As soon as i hear the groove, it feels so effortless. Thanks mr CM.

I'm a fan of BIG drums but this, in a low tuning, sounds fantastic!

You're a talented drummer. Thought it sounded best on the medium tuning. Thanks for sharing.

that snare sounds MUCH better than what I expected

Last video of 2019 with the famous Pants:)Happy New Year!

That's up there with a 'Pre-War Gibson' banjo, thanks a lot! Added to the list of things I need after a $70K room haha... Hearing that fat low tuning and seeing the pants made me want it after three whacks. The room mic(s) would light these up.

Stellar playing, man. It reminds me of what Leon Parker can do with a small kit.

Don’t change the head. Don’t change anything about that drum other than tuning...

anyone please, what is that hi hat clutch ?...

What date is this snare from? Very nice! Thanks, for Sharing

el tambor es una reliquia el hihat tremendo el plato no parece hecho por un terricola y el bombito zafa y el musico es impecable muy buen relax punch y presicion y tempo y swing excelente! felicitaciones PARA CARTER MC LEAN desde buenos aires jorge jose savelon latricchia, great drumming!demo!

Fabulous playing as always. I dig those piccolo lugs from Ludwig. How many screws in each one?

I like bassdrum sound. doon doon♪

Amazing drum, and $exy grooving!!! I want one of these snares or the downbeat version for my small collection. P.s. I got the same pjs for Christmas no joke🤘

I'm especially impressed by the mic placement with this kit - jazz kits can sound unruly but this all works really well together here. bravo dude!

That kit is a perfect example of less is more. Also I love the high tuning, but all of them are great.

I never expected that little drum to sound so full. Lots of that is great tuning and amazing playing.

i have never liked a video so fast in my entire life thank you

awesome sounds. awesome playing. thanks for sharing!

saya suka cara anda bermain terutama pada tuning tinggi..dan aku ingin mencobanya dalam latihan.

Naturally created compression and nicely limited dynamics with ancient gear !

Tasty

where do i find this snare?

The high tuning is what differentiates this snare. I've got a pearl maple 13 x 3 piccolo for the same reason

Crazy that’s only a 13”. Totally looks 14” snare.

how are you getting that "ghost" hit on the kick around 1:03 ???? it looks like the knee is coming down on the beat, but there's note before it somehow.. is it some heel toe thing?

Sweeeeeet. Great chops. Whoa. Awesomeness. Dig the snare tuning. And.... ah yes...those pies 😜. U R GROOOOVY. Whew. 🙏

Phenomenal sound.

How come my pearl 13 x 3 piccolo doesn’t sound as good as this

Ludwig is Ludwig the others are the parking lot...

This Little fella sounds amazing, I wouldn’t believe if I didn’t hear it.

That was sweet, Great sound 🤘

you went full whiplash

John boham snar médium ?

very interesting and good sound

how you tune your snear and which skine

Luv the video! Do you keep bottom head tuned the same for the tunings?

Favorite drummer

niiiice grooves, and always, i love the high tuning.

Great sound ,and Great grove‼︎

nice video, great playing !

Thanks! Back in the day i always wanted a Ludwig piccolo......never did get one though. Sounds awesome!

Where can I find a new one to buy?
