Part of Michael’s Drums series of life-long joy
Michael’s Drums 9
2016 Update
Because of this I picked up a Ludwig acrolite (acrolyte?) snare. Pristine and broadly tunable, but still lacking the tang of a chrome shell. Maybe it’s the Evans “emperor” batter head on the acrolite vs. the Remo diplomat on the chrome. Acrolite is dry – closer to wood shell sound than chrome; probably that’s no surprise.
Also picked up a Pearl brass piccolo. Phat!
My favorite remains Ludwig chrome 14×5 w/ Remo Diplomat; second is new Pearl brass piccolo.
