    I like how both his signature snares (mapex and pearl) are quite different from each other and yest it doesn't veer away for the Matt Halpern sound. I think both snares would be great additions to your collection.
    Similarities:
    -Brass Metal
    -14x6 size
    Build Differences:
    - 1.2mm (Mapex) vs. 1.5mm (Pearl) thick brass shell
    - 9 standard vents (Mapex) vs. 3 standard vents (Pearl)
    - Evans Heavyweight (Mapex) vs. Evans Dry Heavyweight (Pearl) -- it think this compensates for the lack of vents vs the Mapex
    - Steel 2.3mm Sonic Saver Hoops (Mapex) vs 5.0mm Pearl Diecast Hoops
    - Black Panther single lugs (Mapex) vs Tube lugs (Pearl)
    - Gun Metal Black Color (Mapex) vs. Flat Black (Pearl)

    Sounds exactly like the mapex Matt Halpern (not a bad thing, I have it, and it's my favorite snare) the mapex is also brass, also has 3 vent holes, also recommends the Evans hd reverse dot, almost identical other than the tube lugs it seems.

    • @theguy4361
      @theguy4361 2 роки тому +2

      He went from 1,2mm to 1,5mm of brass and from the sonic saver hoop to a die cast, those are pretty significant changes
      Also, the old one was 9 vents, not 3
      But yeah, that's not surprising that he went for characteristics in the same ballpark. If the wraith was still sold, I would buy it anytime over the pearl one. The 300$ added on the price tag is not worth the difference in my opinion

    Nice drum. I like the 6" depth, I like that it's brass and I like that it has diecast hoops. It ticks a lot of boxes for me. I just don't love the all-black aesthetic, but that's just me. It reminds me of some cheaper drums that have black hoops. Yuk! I don't love tube lugs either. I think they suit drums with single flange counter hoops, but not modern drums with heavy hoops. For me, tube lugs look better on old drums, like 1920s era Ludwigs and Slingerlands. You need to have the stick chopper hoops to complete the look with the tube lugs.

    So... he went from 9 vent holes and 2.3mm hoops to 3 vent holes and cast hoops. Yet achieves a nearly identical tonal characteristic and volume. Interesting. I'm a huge Pearl fan, but I have to say... his Mapex signature snare was far nicer looking IMHO.

    • @thesneakygamer4343
      @thesneakygamer4343 2 роки тому

      Also I would say that this sound isn’t really versatile. Like if you want something really dry you could always just get a thicker head and crank it or just muffle the drum more. Like having the vent holes unfortunately limits the drum imo

    Ever heard of height adjusting a snare stand? Wow.
    Complaining that there is not enough space to accommodate a 0.5" deeper snare because the kick pedals are in the way, that's a total nonsense statement.
    A half inch is literally 12mm, about the thickness of the average pinky finger, or the shank of an average drum stick. To me, that's simply laziness to adjust your kit properly.
    If you were to adjust the snare stand down by HALF an inch, you can fit any normal 6.5" drum and still have your desired sticking height unchanged.
    There are so many snare stand architectures to get, how can any snare stand suddenly get "in the way" of drum pedal hardware on the floor when adjusting it 0.5" down?
    I'm sorry but that's total nonsense.
    It's a nice snare build though, the material choice makes sense.
    Didn't mean to go off on a rant, but just that sudden nugget of total nonsense in a fairly professionally made demo completely surprised me.
