I got this for metal and rock, the sound cuts through everything. The high tunings on a thick single ply are where this snare really shines, it's snappy and articulate.
I think this snare is a lot more versatile than people give it credit for. It sounds great at literally all tuning levels which not many snares do. Also I dont find the sustain and the overtones to be too overpowering. It just sounds like a deeper drum than a 5" which to me isn't a bad thing.

For anyone wanting a similar drum and isn't tied to brand or artist, Gretsch makes a black nickel over steel snare that sounds quite good, and is really affordable.
Been playing one of these as my main snare for years. Once you dial in the tuning and dampening they sound immaculate. A perfect pop. Best 150 bucks I've ever spent.
🤘💪😎
I totally agree, I put some puresound wires on to try and I love it even more now
Hey alex if you wouldn't mind texting back I've been working on this snare for A LONG time and haven't dialed it in. I've tried dampeners and other loosening/ tightening tactics. If you wouldn't mind lending some knowledge I would be greatly appreciate for it. Ive tried variations of looser or tighter tops and bottoms. I got desperate and tied a wife beater t shirt over the top to get some sort of dry punchy sound. I can't get away from the pingy ness of the steel frame. Any tips would help me out a lot. Peace love and a banjo ✌️
@@jadaweaver2796 I use a very large 42 strand snare wire with a coated Remo Ambassador as the batter. I put light dampening (one moon gel or one piece of creased duct tape) on the batter and tune to a medium to medium-high range. Experiment with something like that. I also switched out the hoops for heavier die cast hoops but I'm unsure if that made a difference or not.
Thanks for this, it’s very helpful! And definitely the best chad snare review I’ve seen
Thank you very much! 😊🙏
Best video about this snare!! I'm bought this snare recently and is wonderful!! God bless you!!
Thank you and God bless you too!!
Suena precioso en todas las afinaciones
Pearl makes great snares! This one sounds good muffled; not a fan of the BFSD, except as sort of an approximation to a drum machine.
That Masshoff tuning sounds exactly like the snare drum in RHCP's 'Dani California'.
Little drier and deeper, but yeah, that's definitely the drum to get that sound with 👍!!
I just picked up the best used one I've ever seen in the wild. No real wear, looks like it was used and put up shortly after. Very minimal stick marks or anything. Also should add I use the pdp acrylic 7 by 13 on one of my kits as well. Very happy to have this addition.
💪
I heard his acrylic snares are terrible, like really cheaply made, just with his signature on it.
@@thepluggy1 it really depends on what you can get out of a drum. At the time it was a reasonable priced acrylic snare offered in a few different sizes. They have a nice 70s sound you can get out of them. I wouldn't call it his best signature model. Still happy with it. I use it more in a tight dead register.
It`s a really good snare, I owned one but for some reason traded it in..
I see you found a place for the sign
Yesss 🤘🥳
Nice video mate. Thanks. Whhet head do you use for the big fat sound :)?
Thank you 😊! I usually cut out a used 10 mil single ply coated head, like a Remo Coated Ambassador or an Evans G1, UV1 etc.
I need to buy one. I love his style and personality. I thought the same about the Gretsch Taylor H signature snare. Had no interest in it. Loved the drummer. Not interested in a ss snare. Looked online to see if I could find one used. Which I’ve always seen em used for $150 ish. Now… $500+ in the used market. 😯. Chads stuff is gonna be collectible and valuable when he… ya know.
from tight'ish up to pingy, where did you run the snare side head through those tension ranges?
Ive had one of these snares for 12 or so years, love the sound and versatility, also the quality is very solid, good edges, things like the holes for the throwoff and butt plate being aligned, i have much more expensive snares that have edge issues and the holes for the throwoffs and butt plates arent aligned properly causing issues with tensioning the wires right🤦🏻♂️
The snare side head was always the same, which is cranked up very high.
It's a very well made snare and nearly unbeatable at this price point 💪.
I have one of these that belongs to my nephew. Now I'm inspired to fix it up. Did you re-tune the snare head when you were raising the pitch, or only the batter side head? Thanks.
Hi 😎! For those demos I always leave the reso head at the same pitch (fairly high...).
Somebody knows release date of this signature snare ?
Hey Simon great video. What is the drum mute you are using at 27sec? Do you have a link?
Thanks 🙏! It's the remo active snare dampener: remo.com/product/active-dampening-system
Hi, how did you get Superhigh tuning?
Just crank the top head up to approx. 1.5 turns per screw (with the bottom head super tight anyways)...
@@SimonSpringerMusic remo coated ambassador ?
@@carlosvivestiti Yes - always 🤘
Cuánto cuesta esa tarola?
Ya no se fabrica, así que te recomiendo buscarla de 2ª mano. Solía ser el 1er modelo "Signature" de Chad Smith cuando estaba con Pearl. Mucho más tarde le estrenaron otro modelo muy original en "Free Floating", y poco después firmó un contrato con DW, quién le hizo los 3 modelos de acrílico trasparente que aparecen al principio del vídeo.
I have!!!
No eye contact
Chad NEVER used this snare! Lol
Chad never used it, truth. He told me in person in 2000 - my insignificant band played a festival tour with his band. He played a Ludwig black beauty then. I played his signature drum and naively told him I did. The Chad Smith signature Pearl drum is amazing - it doesn’t need his name on it to be good. Hit it hard - it sounds better.
When the endorser doesn't use it,you know it's under whelming.
Had one,
Meh.
It's definitely not a high end snare and was aimed more at the "fan" in a lower price range - but with Chad's sound and concept in mind. I get your point, but for the price it's actually a good snare.
@@SimonSpringerMusic Don't know about you ,but if I endorse something ,I would at least attempt to play it.
From the guys I know that are given an autograph endorsement,they get a %.of all sales.
Would make sense if the product wasn't such a dud.
As for price ,the Sensitones were cheaper and better
@@cpu554 I would too use my own signature product, I get your point. Still, for the price it's a nice snare. The Sensitones are also good 😎.
i don't wanna be mean but yours sounds horrible. mine doesn't sound like that at all.
Right I saw in a comment he only turned the top screws 1.5 turns. I've played this snarw for years and the top has to be tight a fuck or you sound like this snare. Any tips I would appreciate it. Did you change you're under wire and If so what kind????
@@jadaweaver2796 ambassador heads + 20 strands snare + relatively tight tension + half a gel. Good crack with a touch of pop. The more tension the more pop but less crack. Depends if youre a rimshotter or a head hitter.
