drumboy_14 Posted July 29, 2010 Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 So I'm looking to acquire a new snare, I already have a Brady Jarrah Block so I'm looking for something metal to give me a different choice in sound. I've been looking at the Pearl Free Floating models, along with the new Mapex Black Panther offerings, but mainly I am looking for a good deal. If anyone here is thinking of selling their metal snares then give me a shout, I am keen. I have a budget in mind but I'd just like to see if anyone has anything to offer first. Condition should be good to mint, and sizes I'm not too bothered about, preferably 14x5 - 6.5 but I'm easy. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thornybank Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 SnareIt is a Pearl.14" x 7".Free floating design.Model plate says "Brass Steel".I can't find any bumf/gen on it, so I have emailed Pearl to dientify age and current equivalent model so we can value the thing.Also have a Yamaha model 5501 steel. 14x5.Perfectly good, but not in the same league as the Pearl.

drumboy_14 Posted August 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Hi guys,Thanks so much for your offers, but I managed to pick up a 14" x 5" Ludwig 400 on ebay for a pretty penny. Gonna give it a try, I've heard good things. If I decide to change though I'll be sure to hit you up.Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
