I'm gonna check out the drum you ordered... I saw it at namm, but wasn't impressed. Heard nothing but praise for it otherwise.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but I have been thinking about trying a 14" X 7" acrylic snare, but have never played one. I've played a Ludwig Acrolite kit and thought it was ok. I prefer maple but I am interested in trying an acrylic snare.
Do they tend to be dry in tone? I have also been looking at 1/8" thick shell, aluminum snare in a 14" x 6.5" and it sounded pretty nice. It was made by Epek,
www.epekpercussion.com These guys are basically in my back yard and have been wanting to support the locals and buy something from him. He gets his acrylic shells from the same people that make them for Ludwig and other companies.
I am currently using two 14" x 8" 20 ply snares that I love (1 maple and 1 birch) and wonder how an acrylic snare will be of use to me.
