classic wooden snare drum
Finn

14" x 6" Wenge / Iroko / Teak snare


​*****
Something about this snare caught my ear when I first hit it.  I haven't gigged with anything else from that day!

What a piece of kit! Great resonance but with a crisp snare sound.  Gigs brilliantly but has really come into its own in the studio when its recorded sound is just beautiful!
​Thanks

I gigged with the snare drum last night and it was fantastic - what a warm, deep, clear sound which cuts through brilliantly well; rim taps were also terrific. Other members of the band commented on it as well. One of our guitarists is a carpenter by trade and he was really impressed with the quality and workmanship as well as the sound quality.

I've been searching for that perfect 'funk' snare for years.
The search is over!
​Sounds even better than it looks - if that's possible

​Maple / Wenge / Iroko snare



​*****
I tried lots of different snares that Bristol Drums made but I fell in love with this one. Being a 13” it can go high and give a lovely punch, but the depth means that it has great tone. I’ve used it for a number of different gigs and it tunes really well. It’s been great chatting to Michael and being able to find the right snare for me. Highly recommended!

13" x 4" Beech snare


​*****
The build quality and to detail is immense. But what really impressed me was the dynamic and tonal range I could get from the drum.  It means that I can play pretty much any style, in any venue, studio or live setting. 
​Would highly reccommend.

The snare that I bought is still my favourite snare I have ever owned! So versatile, responsive and just top quality snare drum.  I always recommend Bristol Drum Co. whenever I get asked about this snare from other drummers.

Oak snare drum
Mike

12" x 4" Oak snare


​*****
My Bristol Drum Co 12” Oak snare is such a tasty instrument. It delivers crisp, clear tones perfect for funk and pop and looks beautiful from every angle. It’s my go to for functions and is a great side snare if you’re looking for something with a little more versatility. 

Purpleheart wood snare drum

Wenge / Purpleheart snare


​****
The snare drum has worked for me very well!​ On all songs I have recorded it has come out with a beautiful sound and live it's so comfy to play and has the bright sound that I enjoy!
Out of 5 I would say a 4, as it is hard to clip a mic on the snare where the rim dips in [s-hoops fitted]
