Good quality for the price
I got this snare with my drumset, and it came with some of the bolts for the lugs loose, and I had two fall out while playing. Other than that, it is well built and good quality for the price. The stock heads and wires are good, though the heads are a little bit worse than normal Remo heads. In terms of sound, it's alright, just very dry and not in a good way, but maybe I'm not good at tuning.
this is a GREAT sounding snare drum!
I picked up one of these several months ago but only recently started gigging with it. I tuned up the bottom head good and tight (like I typically do on all my snares) and have the batter head pretty tight too. I AM LOVIN THIS SNARE! This baby has more crack than a 300-pound plumber! I love the rim shots. It's got great ring when I play off center, but a solid, clean, no ring when I hit in the middle. And if you're not a fan of that ringy sound, it's easily remedied with a gel tab or damper ring (I actually like to add the damper when we play some of the 80's songs for that instant fatness).
