Patty_Fla_Fla Registered: 04/12/05 Loc: California	Snare- Yamaha Tenor- Dynasty (because of the 8" spock) and Yamaha because their really good quality Bass- Yamaha Cymbals- I never play anything but Zildjian I don't really care much for the Dynasty snares, but that's just me. I've played on Pearl, Yamaha, and Dynasty drums, and I just think that Yamaha makes a better drum. Dynasty makes good tenors though, that's obvious. _________________________ AHS Drum Line 2001-2002 Capitan 2003-2004 Merced College Band 2004-present WMS Percussion Instructor 2004-2007 Modesto Fever Drum Corps Bass Line (top) - 06 Paradigm Percussion Bass Capitan - 06-07

snarepaint Registered: 06/13/03	Quote: ...Tenors - Yamaha (you actually can tell the difference between two 6" spocks) You should hope not, considering that they're the same drum and that would seriously question the quality and consistency of Yamaha products. If you meant that you can tell the difference between the 6 and the 8, then that's understandable and one would hope so because they're supposed to sound different. IMO, Pearl gets the vote across the board. There's nothing unnecessary on their products (except the snare covers) and all their drums have a full, yet focused sound. Yamaha and Dynasty make excellent products, but Pearl is it for me. Quote: ...Tenor- Dynasty (because of the 8" spock)... Dynasty is not the only company that makes 8 inch spock drums. _________________________ DCI, DCA, WGI, done it all in some form.

supernova Registered: 04/18/05	Personally, I Think Yamaha has some of the best drumline equipment out there. Our school got some new Yamaha stuff this year. The Sfz snares are freakin awasome, the quints we got that i play look, feel and sound great to, the basses are perfect for tonal too. _________________________ Jason Howder Snare 7,8,9,10 grades quads 11,12 grades

iBuckeye Registered: 07/04/04 Loc: Columbus, Ohio	Snare - Dynasty; I'm partial to the Shorty drums with top snare units. Nice articulation, yet still warm in a sense. Tenors - Yamaha; Again, nice articulation. They sound a lot different than other brands and seem to have a little more emphasis on higher pithces, granted the birch shells. Basses - Pearl; Deep, deep, deep, and articulate sounding when tuned in manners I like. The extra two inches added to the depths of the thirty and thirty-two inch drums really seems to make a difference. Cymbals: The versatility and catalogue drive me to pick Sabian. They material is slightly thicker than Zildjians and is less likely to invert during normal playing, and the quality is unmatched. Pit: Adams; their mallet instruments are some of the toughest I've seen, and sound warm and lush at the same time. _________________________ John Dixon TBDBITL I-Row TBDBITL First on the grass.
