    A snare drum at this level of quality and this price point not made in Asia is simply amazing. This could be ANYONE's primary snare. We visited Portsmouth for a few days this week and I was able to make it into the store twice, once alone and once with my wife and daughter. I was beyond impressed with British Drums and when my wife was with me the second time, they were the only ones that got her attention. She thought their finishes were stunning. Intro on this video was hysterical guys!

    When I first read the specs of the Raven when it was launched, I was astounded. As far as I could tell, it had all the things the rest of the range have, but it was about half the price. If this had been around last year when I bought my Big Softy, I'd have bought one of these instead. And I wouldn't have felt I'd compromised, I'd have been too busy just being pleased I owned a BDC drum and counting the money I'd saved.
    By the way. I pissed myself laughing at the intro. Great work fellas 👍😂

    I own this drum - and it’s fantastic and have had good comments from the band and others. Fantastic snare at this price.
    I only live 40 miles from the factory in Stockport near Manchester- so have to support them.
    One of the first gigs I ever played in was in a pub called ‘The Raven’ (in Flint, North Wales) so it was another reason to give to my wife when I bought it.

    Love your videos and sense of humour, guys! Yes, the British Drum Company do make beautiful drums, with great attention to detail, they have kind of set a standard for others to follow. Even though I prefer metal snares, I have a 14" x 6.5" Big Softy, which is a lovely drum. It came with Remo (USA made) heads, which was a plus, and the drum itself is a cracker. Look forward to your next instalment.

    When I was coming up in the 50’s & 60’s, if you didn’t play Ludwig, Rogers, Slingerland, Gretsch like some of the biggies, most others considered inferior. Out of the loop for decades in the military, but watching your channel for a few years, I really appreciate the education on how great these other drum makers really are. Thanks!

      I have one: I don't like birch snare drums.
      I don't like the "pre-compressed" and "boxy" (at times) quality that birch shell snare drums tend to have...
      As an habitual maple and thick metal shell user, my ear is used to more low end, more warmth and less of the high frequencies of the drum coming from the wires...
      I feel like that drum would MAYBE work for me with different wires and a double ply head (to warm up the sound), but it's generally not my thing.
      Otherwise, the thing is just too good to be true.
