Well, I've got a 7x14 Noble & Cooley SS, too, and it's also one of my favorites. It's got more of a really great classic wood snare sound. Totally different than the Pig Lite. I would think that if you want something completely different than the two 8x14 wood snares you have, a 7x14 wood snare isn't gonna be much of a stretch in terms of general character. But the Noble & Cooley drums are freaking fantastic. (I've got a whole kit.)

I heard a 14" X 7" a couple of weeks ago. I saw a live band and the drummer was using an SS and it sounded fantastic. I've always been curious about them but never actually heard one. It sounded great and had a very nice attack and it really cut through.

I'm still thinking acrylic or aluminum for something different.
