I've been waiting for you to make this video!!! I have so many drum sets snares but not a single concert snare and sometimes I've tried the conversion but never have nailed it in my opinion. Thanks for all the insight Rick, you are truly a drum guru.

I would love to see a tutorial on how you teach / develop your buzz strokes and how you maintain them. Thanks 🙏 another great video and contribution to the drumming community. All the best !!!

I agree with you about the clip included with the Puresound snare wire. It's a PITA and takes longer to re-fit than simply removing the strap from the clamp.

This video came up on drumforum. I play in the grey area between jazz and modern classical, and the wetness of my snares is always something I'm trying to dry out. I will try changing to non-curly wires.

Very informative, Rick. I actually purchased a base 6.5/14 Black Swamp Maple sd a few months back, which came with the non-wrap around version of those snares, and I liked the crisp response and tone to the point that I installed the same snares on my Tama 6.5/14 drum set snare drum....I like the easy responsiveness and control of the ring. I am using (on both drums) a Freer leather drum mute.

I love the clarity of the concert snares. How do you feel about using them for jazz with the drum set?

@rickdior Жыл бұрын

With the concert snares on there it's too dry of a sound for me in that setting. You can change over the snares and move back and forth between different types of music.

love your playing and knowledge, your channel is amazing, which is why I'm turning to you for a question I can't find the answer to. Why are cymbals from the fifties and back bendable and shake a lot when you hit them, but cymbals from the late fifties and up don't. Thank you!

Hi Cymbals started to get a bit thicker with the advent of Rock N Roll in the 50's when the playing became harder and drummers with less refined technique started bashing the hell out of them. Breakage was common so Zildjian started making heavier A's at this time. Thats why the A's from the 40's and 50's generally sound better than the later A's. The thinness of the cymbal creates that wave that you are describing. Most of the old K's do that.

(Not a complaint. Was fun to play the “is he gonna play it next?” game.)

I only have maple orchestral drums, so I don't currently have the benefits of a metal drum. I'd be interested to see what my acrolite sounds like doing a conversion like this. Have you ever tried this with an acrolite or superphonic?

I have and it works fine as long as you use the correct snares. The Ludwig strainers on those drums are not so great. You would get better results with an older p 87.
