Virgil Donati Snare how is it?

[andyman1970]

i'd say the st. dry would give it a good depth and sound but if i were you, i'd stay with the ambassador snare side and the coated ambassador batter

The Donati is way too open for my tastes with the stock Ambassadors. I think the Emperor batter might just be the perfect combo.

the snare is horrible.you should buy it, then sell it to me for 1 dollar.

I love this snare and it is one of the nicest pearl sig snares i played..i highly recommend it..or the EC snare..theyre both ownable!

would you just mind specifying who EC is? maybe eric chambers? just kidding man. i prefer the OH better.

What heads are you using on it ?

Right now I'm experimenting with an ST Dry batter, Ambassador reso with the batter tighter than the reso. Thanks to the rounded bearing edge, there still a nice open ring even with the ST Dry - gotta love that.

Next up is a PCRD followed by an Emperor.

$314.50 @ Massmusic.net - I've owned this snare for a few months and it's finally trumped my Ultracast 6.5 as my primary snare.

i think they sound great...for a wood snare they have a lot of crack

[jon]

that snare is amazing.... the crack you get out of it is beyond belief. It's a combination of birch and maple plies and has a extra deep snare bed for good sensitivity. It's really versitile and when you lay into it, it really sounds good. i think it's goin for like $300 or so....

i've beeen eager to try this one but none of the drum shops around here have it Did any one try it yet? I noticed in the ads for it they mentioned it was versatile do you guys think it is? how much does this bad boy run?
