(SOLD) Pearl Chad Smith Signature 14x5 Black Nickel Over Steel Snare Drum
Here's a cool offering from Pearl. This signature model is no longer in production so you only see them floating about used nowadays. They sound great and the black nickel over steel is classy. The hardware on these is sturdy and the Super Hoop II gives a bit more focus to the sound. Rimshots and rim clicks are pronounced and clear and the articulation is superb. These are a good fit for anything in the rock genre as they cut through with a fair amount of body but with the articulation that lets your funky ghosts be heard. All in all, it's a real Chad.
