The best I ever heard this same snare drum is from drummer Jonas Ekdahl with the band Evergrey on their live concert DVD a night to remember. Though Jonas used a slight different head, a Remo Emperor X on the batter side. He got such a beautiful crack with just the right amount of dryness and pop to it.
Nice batter head selection. With an Ambassador or G1, the ring would be out of control. Sounded perfect at higher tunings without the need for any dampening.
Ive got an ancient one of these that was in a tour bus fire in Germany 😂 still great sound though ' i think the shell expanded slightly in the heat of the fire ' but that just add's to it Absolute tank
Just did a recording , someone recommended me to use one at the studio rather than mine , gave it a go , it ruined the session sounded horrible , not a fan
