Details of the Snare Drum

What we are going to go through here is a step by step process which we would teach you how to tune and maintain your snare drum. This process was really inspired by a client that I have thought recently at a high school where we have arrived there, playing on teaching them how to actually play the drums and we got there and they had beautiful equipment very similar to what we got here an it was all assemble and tuned completely incorrectly. So what we are going to try to do is try to prevent this from happening in your program, in your band, in your line. What we got here is the pro FFX carbon ply model which is used now days in a lot of contemporaneity ansambles including marching bands, drums chords, fife and drum chords so what I would teach you how to tune it specially for more of a marching line, drumlin setting and a drum chord setting.
