Pearl Chad Smith Signature Snare Reviews 4 / 5 based on 1 reviewsI needed a new snare (I was using a snare from the '60's!)and got this one for $180 at Guitar Center in Michigan.
The snare has a good crack and can be tuned high or low with good results. When hitting the rim it produces a nice click that can cut through bass and guitar.
Tuning! Maybe I just hit my snare hard but to keep it sounding really good I must tune it every two to three days. However, I have mastered this down to a science and can tune it quite easily now.
The snare is made well. It is pretty heavy but that is expeceted of most metal snares. I really like the hoops and the snare lever.
For the money this is a good snare. It really does sound like Chad's although I find it hard to believe that he would use a snare that retails for about $200. All in all good snare at an affordable price. Rock Bottom rated this unit on 2004-03-02.
