Some Drum Help Please!?
Is this upgrade worth the trouble?
from my pearl EX snare drum to a pearl masters MMX
Is this upgrade worth the trouble?
whether the change would be big or small
I'll definitely not be getting a reference snare drum
I just know it has a wiiide tuning range
better hoops and lugs.
Is this better for live purposes?
Generally a snare is the best upgrade you can make other than really good cymbals. I play a Masters Series kit with the Masters snare. I know it sounds great but have never compared it to the Export snare. Personally I would want to hear it first rather than just buy it mail order without a test drive. Pearl has a good line of signature snares that would be worth a listen also.
