What does everybody in here think of these snares:

5.5 x 14 Brass Sensitone
4 x 14 Maple Piccolo
3.5 x 14 Brass Free Floating

I need some opinions, and if you have any other favorites.

Thanks in advance, later.

I would go with the Free-floating brass. Beautiful snare. Also you can always buy extra shells to go with it so it would be like having 3 snares in one.

FFs are great, but if you don't plan on swapping the shells, or want something a little "meaier" than the 3.5" depth, go with the Sensitone.

:D

brass free floater eh? I'll have to look into it. The guitarist in my one band plays drums too, and hes got a nice set, Pearl Prestige Session Select, with the Brass Free Floater, but his is 5.5 x 14, It sounds good. I heard a 3.5 that this guy was playin at a metal gig though and it tore through the volume but was so perfect at the same time, liked it even better.

If I were rich though i'd go stock pile myself with a few Tama Bell Brass:D :D :D
