Martez Hamilton keep in mind this not the old Remo Legato Snares that they were playing on from 1999-2013. The new Yamaha snares don't require as much power as the old one. Now if you want them to really play then they can and risk busting some power stroke 77 heads. But for real those Drums have good Articulation in sound. I remember when they post the video of the new drums on the Yamaha website and on RU-vid. Even though I miss those Remo Legato Snares, you can't find those snares unless they are for sale on eBay. But Yamaha has some good product out.
