well thank you everyone for your suggestions....BUT I have just found out that my drum company (the one I go though now) Peace, is offering me some snares at a VARY cheep rate.

SO here are my options:

6.5" x 14" Brass or wood

5.5" x 14" wood

Slim Jim Phantom Signature

 

I am looking for something with a real loud "CRACH" and mellow over tones. What of the 5 snares I listed, what would you choose?

Check these out.

 

I can't recommend those enough. I bought a 14x5.5 copper Slinger-Yo back when they were on sale for $80 and that thing is awesome. I really wasn't expecting much, but I figured for $80, what the hell, right? I put coated Studio X and Classic Clear SS heads on it and Puresound snare wires and it KILLS. I have no experience with their brass snares, but if they're as good as my copper snare, $150-200 is a bargain.

I played slingerland for years...I just recently sold one of my Slingerland kit's acctualy (Still have the vintage one) and I also have a crome coated Steel Radio King. I love that drum, probably the best one I have. But I was always alittle iffy on the Music-Yo stuff, because they were student level imports, and not the classica American made Slingerlands...however I found out that Slingerland is back in America!!! Can't wait to see them in stores again.

But anyway...I ordered my snare from Peace today. I figure, they give me a huge discount, and are willing to endorsme me for my upcoming US tour, so why not.

I am haveing them make me a 5.5" x 14" 9ply maple snare, in black laqure, and all black heardwear. Should be killer!!!

I always order custome from them, this way my whole kit is one of a kind. ;) I'll have to post pics of it sometime.
