I love pearl japan models i have 1 these as i commented and 4 other mij pearl snare drums. I had a cb700 maple free floater in high school i guess it was pearl trying out the design or whatever on lower end first. It was so close to a 1st gen pearl. Pearl made cb700 so just odd thing this bacame such a sought after item .😊
Great video! You have the snare tuned pretty high for the concluding playing example. How does this snare sound to you at medium or even lower tensionings?
I have a 1st gen aluminum FFS with Super Hoops. Recently the throw-off developed a fair bit of friction when turning the wires on/off, like the lever won't pop into the off position, I have to move it all the way. I hope it's something I can just add some grease to, because I'm not looking forward to having to take apart the throw-off. I really hope it isn't a rivet breaking, but with my luck, it is.
Sounds like it. The Pro Drum Shop in Hollywood fixed mine. It is difficult to get the rivets replaced. You should be able to unscrew the bottom to look inside.
Great drum. Great voice over.
Nice . I have a older 2nd gen ff maple 14inch. These are best sound available
Correction. The drum was built in 1982 but I got carried away in the VO...
Dude you should totally get voiceover work. Your smooth calm almost tranquil speaking really would fetch career

@@vandavis000 Great information thanks for sharing. I’m glad you enjoyed the video.

Thanks yeah right now it's tight in the video because of the silver dot. An Ambassador give it a way different sound. It great in all tunings.
