Default DW craviotto snares

i just want to know, has anybody ever had any experience with a DW craviotto snare? i think they have good qualities, but ive never actually heard one for myself, and if i get good feedback, i may look into getting one for myself. thanks a lot!

a craviotto is probably one of my all time favorite snare, and the best snare (IMO) that DW makes.

it has a very nice pop and overall great sound to it. this snare is very versitile. i highly reccomend that you try this drum out.

Default buy direct

the Craviottos are all great drums. I encourage you to buy one with quality parts. Go for the brass lugs and a good throw, not the cheaper cast DW lugs. It will open up the drum more, and it will look better longer, which is a nice bonus.

Yes, the DW craviotto snare drums are insanely good sounding. It brings a joy to my playing every time I get to play one.
