So which snare (size wise) do y'all prefer for gospel?

mrwhite · « **Reply #15 on:** December 21, 2005, 12:12:50 PM »

(sorry) if y'all had to choose one snare to play for gospel (based on size and shell type), what would you choose?

freddyfusion · « **Reply #16 on:** December 21, 2005, 12:48:49 PM »

i would use and plan on getting something 13x5, 6, or 7 either wood bronze or copper. i'll most likely end up with all three materials.
but i don't think i will ever buy a pro snare bigger than 13"
the only snare i've owned that was bigger came with the set.
personal preference and comfort.- i don't like the snare being too close.

dancindrumma · « **Reply #17 on:** December 21, 2005, 01:08:13 PM »

i use a Pearl Piccolo 3" x 13" its small and compact just right for my flow!![[/img]
