      Comments about DW Performance Series Steel Snare Drum:

      I upgraded to this snare from my PDP Platinum snare drum. The Platinum snare was decent but just didn't have the tone I was looking for, had a bland ordinary sound, and made noise when I hit the tom closest to it (from the snare itself). As soon as I started playing the DW I was blown away! It has a tone I didn't expect from a steel drum, and no snare vibration issues. I don't typically focus on my snare drum other than keep a beat and hitting it when I crash cymbals, but with this drum I find myself focusing on it as much as I do with my toms. It's actually changing my approach to drumming to an extent. And my interest in playing just got a shot in the arm. High quality stuff with an amazing sound always gives you more motivation to play. This drum did that for me.
