Gives me sexual feelings......need some sexual healing......sexual. :lol:



I love most gretsch snares they have so much character. This baby has great all round sound its a versatile workhorse and its sweet.

Had my eye on this sucker for a while.

I got it on special for less than Half Price from a store than didnt have enough floor space for drums anymore so they were liquidating drum stock to buy guitar stock (go figure).

I can just imagine the kind of sweet ring i will get if I change to flange on this baby.


What do you guys think :naughty:

I've been looking at that one as well, but would be buying it in blind faith as I cant try it out, so give me your thoughts on it when you have it broken in ta.

Check out this soundclip. Drag your mouse over over the batter to get a normal stroke ; click the batter head to get a drum roll

Spelt :lol:

I can apparently be both "spelled" and "spelt", although the fact that "spelt" is a word is merely pandering to the idiocy of those who can't spell. They don't make them learn the correct spelling, they just change the rules so that the wrong is also right. It's similar to putting "sheeps" in the OED. Completely idiotic.

Snare looks nice, man

No the correct word to use in Proper English in your case is Spelt , for a variety of reasons im too lazy arsed to get into.



My point is dont bother posting spam about peoples spelling/grammar because yours isn't perfect either.

*shrugs*

I was in a pissy mood. If I'm in the wrong, I'll accept that. Still think I'm right though. It doesn't make sense to me. Following that spelling and its implications to their logical conclusion, "kilt" is not a piece of traditional Scottish attire resembling a skirt, but the past tense of "kill".

And it was only half spam. I did say I liked your snare. Not sure if I like the finish to be honest, but I'll bet it sounds like a beaut.
