If you like a Ludwig Black Beauty, or the Ludwig s402 John Bonham sound and don't want to spend $450++ then this baby is for you!  Use the Buy it Now option and I will include a brand new Protection Racket snare drum bag. Protection Racket makes the best drum bags on the planet!.A $45.00 value! Dunnett R-Class Throw-Off- The throw- off features all-metal die cast construction for maximum durability and a release lever that can be rotated 180 degrees relative to the drum shell. This allows the drummer to position the lever for easy access regardless of the position of the drum. A friction tension system prevents the lever from movements caused by vibrations. "It’s a very simple and effective design, and as it’s all chrome it ties in nicely with other chrome fittings on your drum." says Dunnett.   Fat Cat Snares- 24 Strand Dual Tension Snares (12 throw off adjustable strands for a tight sound and 12 tension-reducible strands for ultra-sensitive sound0. Eliminates need for two throw-offs. Fattens your sound. Fully active at any volume and fits most snares.   Tight Screw Tension Rods-  The TightScrew® is a non-loosening tension rod that is designed to stay right where you put it. It features a small channel cut along the length of the rod where the threads go into the lug. The channel is filled with something that looks like nylon, and the friction of this substance against the threads inside the lug casing keeps the rod in place. This technology is used on Apache helicopters to prevent parts from loosening under extreme vibration and temperature conditions.  S-Hoop Drum Hoops-  The S-Hoop has many advantages to offer every drummer no matter what level of player they may be. The S-Hoop is like a triple flange hoop except with a different design. From this new design came an overlying edge that turns in and bevels down towards the drum head covering the bearing edge and leaving plenty of room for different tuning tensions. This added steel density made the hoop more rigid like a die-cast hoop therefore giving it the consistent tuning characterisitcs of a die-cast hoop. This new design also gives the S-Hoop a smoother playing surface for rim-shots and side stick creating less impact to the hands and wrist. The patented design allows the toms to sing more and give's the snare a fatter sound than hoops of previous design. We like to call it a "Best of Both World's Hoop" because it incorporates all the characteristics of a die-cast hoop and a triple flange hoop all in one. People will find that the S-Hoop is definatley a unique product. Ships in factory box from ahead. Also I do not use "stock" pictures as the other sellers. I want you to see the "real deal", plus most of all,.....I have the best price on ebay,...do the math and come get some ahead snare drum action ! Here's some comments from my customers on this drum: Feb 21st 2008 "The Ahead snare was a hit. Everybody loved the sound, especially me. Everything I threw at it, it gave back. Sounded as good as any Ludwig Supra or Black Beauty and I have both. Sounded just as good as Neil Peart's snare on the R30 live cd that I listened to going to practice. We played everything from rock to dance songs, the test was Toto's Rosanna and Steve Gadd's Fifty Way's to leave..... Passed both test with flying colors. This is a great drum. I have had many, too many snares. This is the best one." Thanks                                           bongo-head-bill Jan 3rd 2007 "This Snare is unquestionably the best snare under 1000.00 that I have played.The S hoops facilitate the crack you need in playing a great groove.You can use this Snare for just about anything. I love it for Funk,Hip-Hop,Latin and Jazz. Thanks for turning me on to this wonderful insturment.I would love to here this snare head to head with a Ludwig Black Beauty, or Dunnett Brass Snare. My Guess is it would hold its own and then some from a sonic and musical sense."                                           bigluckylooker Fantastic Snare --Better than a black beauty--super seller Buyer  bigluckylooker( 38)  Jan-03-07 07:50 Private I COULD NOT BELIEVE that my purchase was already here today.
