My love of custom made snare drums!

[mtarrani]

Perusing my blog at http://snaredrumz.blogspot.com you'll quickly conclude that I am a big fan of having my snare drums made for me (see http://snaredrumz.blogspot.com/2009/11/b...mmend.html for my favorite builders), as well as "tribute" snare drums (snare drums made from modern shells using vintage parts.

I would love to kick off a discussion about the above ... anyone game?

There is something special about a well-made custom drum. I think maybe in the same way that you plan a dream house and see it come to fruition..

A custom snare, is an itch I've yet to scratch. I have a couple of ideas that I'll get around to having built. We'll sit down and talk over coffee Kevin when I'm ready to order one if that's okay with you.
