Fantastic sound, poor hardware

Hajo, 04.02.2012

I bought this snare because of its legendary sound. It sounds and sounds and sounds. Whether with or without a rimshot, whether deep or high, it is always audible what this black beauty is.
It is worth seeing anyway, because this black shimmering boiler ... hach.

Only ... this snare really deserved the very best hardware. Because the quality of withdrawal and lugs is not at all!

I had four brand-new Beauties in hand: One had already chipped the chrome of the withdrawal. And this fisselig-thin clamping lever of the P-85 take off is simply an offense for the eye and hand.

Likewise, the tube-lug reeds (otherwise very beautiful looking, retro styled): three or four screws were not hand tightened. This means that every change of shape is annoying.

And what about a premium snare? Since I am from Sonor a * completely * different quality accustomed! Very bad, I would have gladly given 5 stars, but am still satisfied with this sound treasure.

Very expensive / very good.

Zabier, 03.10.2017

Its exceptional.
Trigger "Old School", must love.
But then really very expensive. Undoubtedly too expensive but the Rolls Royce of the snare is at this price. 4 * for that.
The color is sublime, the unpacking of the cardboard reminded me of the unpacking of the best gifts being a kid.
Effect "WAOUHHHHH" guaranteed!
LUDWIG "Weather Master" skins of origin not found in France. (to have the sound Ludwig).
Fixations "tubes" strapping I like a lot. The snare is gaining in weight and finesse, and we enjoy even better this beautiful metallic effect.
