Title: steel piccolo?
Post by: mrwhite on August 10, 2005, 10:14:55 AM

Hey y'all, thanks for the prayers for last night.  We did our thing, even though I'm not always satified with how I play but I know God was glorified and souls were blessed which is what counts.  

Anyway, do any of y'all use steel piccolo snares? The church I played at last night has one and it sounds and feels pretty good.  I may have to get one!!

I have one its pretty sweet. I have a remo powerstroke on it to keep the over tone down. However  maples are my favorite.

For versatility, I would have to say "no" on that purchase.  If that's not going to be your only snare drum, go ahead and cop it!  :)  

All in all, it's up to you and what you prefer for your sound!  :)

Sure, why not get you a steel picc.   I have one and I love it and i also have a maple 6'x14" Arbitor so I use my picc. as a side snare most of the time but it can be used as a main snare. Go for it man get a good one. Guitar center has great deals on desent piccs. Of course you may know about Guitar center's deals.             God Bless 8)  :idea:

Title: Steel Snare

I have one on my set.  It was my first snare and I couldn't be happier with it.  It has a real crisp crack when I catch the rim.  It goes wherever I go.  It's a Pearl Piccolo 3x13  Steel Snare.  I recommend it to anybody no matter what style you like to use.
