Tama PE1445 Peter Erskine Snare 14"x4,5" Wild Spruce
I ordered this Tama snare after playing one at a blues jam recently. Having now played it at a couple of gigs, I couldn't be happier. This is as close to the sound I've searched for as I'm likely to find. It's sensitive and very articulate, but it's also beautifully rich sounding. This has now replaced my Rogers Dynasonic and Radio King as my go to snare for gigs. Love it!
