MikeN blanks Registered: 11/25/03 Loc: Austin, TX	Hey all: Has anyone ever seen / heard a pipe band's drum corps (as in drum section) use Dynasty or Yamaha double snares? I'm sure they're a rarity, as they'd have to have the bottom snares custom fitted for wire ones, but I was curious if Pearl/Andante/Premier completely own the market.

The way you stated the question is confusing. _________________________ The Cavaliers - Baritone 1993 Hawthorne Caballeros - Baritone 1988, Contra 1989-1995, Bass 6/5 1996-1998 Pequannock HS - Marching Instructor 1995 Saddle Brook HS - Percussion Instructor 1995 Lodi HS - Percussion Instructor 1996-2003

We get ~~alot~~ a lot of looks when we show up to a Highland games or parade from the other pipe bands. But hey someone has to start a trend. They sound great its a nice mix between corps style and traditional pipe snares. _________________________ Semper Gumby: Always maintain a rigid state of flexibility. http://www.vater.com/

It was sweet! Regrettably, it never made it to market. Probably the best pipe band snare out there right now is the Andante. I haven't heard the Dynasty, but I'm not a fan of their marching band version.
