      @@ButtahDawgMcDouble this is a nickel plated brass shell
      it's black nickel if you couldn't tell
      and I bought it cheap, from flood it had fell.
      but I felt it was, naught the matter at all.
      twas the most beautiful drum that I'd ever saw,
      I thought it was needed by drummers and all.
      I found the sound so sweet in this snare
      the beautiful noise that rang through the air.
      I set off to work with such Grace and such care,
      cause the thought of it dying was to much to bare.
      I measured the butt plate and the throw off too,
      drilled it all out and made it anew.
      I made some scratches, but I hadn't knew,
      but the scratches were covered,
      and I got some snares too.
      and the snare was so great.
      it seemed that lady fate
      had brought it, wrought it, to me
      twas the most gorgeous snare that ever could be.
      why did I do this?

    I bought a gently-used Pork Pie copy of the Black Beauty for $100 about 10 years ago. Also 14” X 5.5”. Probably the best drum investment I’ve ever made. The drum sounds tremendous! It mikes well, cuts through well when needed, responds beautifully to ghost notes and...really, it does everything I’ve ever asked of it perfectly and is a beautiful beast. Thanks again, Billy!

      One of my old drummers had that same snare around the same time period too. I used to to borrow it all the time. Coated ambassador for the batter and a double wide snare set, and then I would crank it way up like I do on all my snares for playing really heavy music. It sounded so, so good.

    Great video ! That snare sounds awesome ! That obviously took a good amount of work to build it.
    Also , i really enjoy your demos because you don't play anything super complicated and we can actually hear the snares.
    So many other drummers demonstrate their stuff and they play super busy
    because they just want to show off their skills and we can't really hear how good the snares are. You are a true professional.
    And your playing is always excellent. Thanks for posting.

  • @RyanAlexanderBloom
    @RyanAlexanderBloom 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Just for reference, right now on eBay for just $258 including shipping you can get a used 6.5x14 nickel over brass DW snare. So while it’s fun to build drums, and that’s not to be overlooked, it’s not really any more economical than buying used drums. Yes this drum cost half of a typical newish real Black Beauty from Ludwig, and of course much less than a vintage one. But on the other hand, if you don’t own a drill press, you can buy a similar drum that’s also not a Ludwig but has the same basic design for a similar price. No disrespect to rdavidr for building this. It’s cool.

Took it to a local drum shop to buy parts and the owner overheard me talking to the parts guy and he explained to me that he had a sale of a complete Bonham kit lined up that coulnd't go forward because he just needed a Supraphonic to complete the kit and offered me $400 in store trade for the shell. I grabbed a brand new brass snare and three Zildjian cymbals out of his personal collection he kept next to his desk in his office. That was the last time I thought I needed a chrome snare.

    Very nice! I've learned over building a few metal shelled drums myself that there's just not a lot you can do to them sonically (short of heads and ring control). A metal shelled drum is a metal shelled drum and all of them seem to have that same, ring-y characteristic.
    Visually is a whole different story & you've clearly and expertly shown this. Not only do you know where to get your parts, but the fit and finish is superb.
    I'm with Fiend S in his request for a PVC drum. Snare, tom, it doesn't matter. I'd love to see what a fabricating artist like yourself would do with an 8 or 10" slice of PVC.
