Pork Pie Big Black Brass Snare

Beautiful Brass Tone Bold Black Look

Balancing the warm and musically vibrant sound of solid brass with the distinct look of black chrome plating, Pork Pie’s Little Squealer series Big Black Brass snare drum offers both a distinct look and sound to your kit. It’s a standout from the rest of the Little Squealer series, featuring chrome-plated tube lugs, rather than the hourglass lugs common to the rest of the series. The Big Black Brass snare also includes the 2.3mm hoops and custom snare wires Sweetwater drummers love about Pork Pie’s other brass drums, providing you with the kind of expressive articulation you won’t typically find in an “off the shelf” instrument.

Re: Pork Pie Big Black Bob Review

The Shell and Lugs etc are supplied by a company called World Max,Pork Pie add the Badge and drum heads..I also have a snare from them it is the exact replica of what you have with the World Max badge..They also supply OCP and SJC amongst others with shells and i agree it is an amazing snare..I replaced the snare wires with a Puresound and it sounds awesome with medium tuning and the snares loose a small bit..I get a nice fat sound with a bareable ring..sweeeeeeeeet.Great review by the way..

Pork Pie Big Black Brass Snare Vs Pork Pie Patina Brass

Hello, Im currently in the market to change my main snare for something that will suite my needs a little more. Over the years ive grown a love for the sound of brass snares. Now im stuck between these two models. Im looking for one that will be more “phat” sounding while having a great POP sound. I will be using this for my Heavy rock/hardcore band. I Think deep down the big black will be more versatile due to its size however my heart is telling me to go with the patina. plus it is sexy as hell. I just dont feel right having a 13 inch snare as my main snare for some odd reason. Maybe you guys can help me decide.

never tried the patina, but ive had a big black brass for about a year now…. it is a huge sounding drum, no doubt, especially when tuned down and a little loose…..sounds huge from a distance…..at first, i just used a coated amb, but recently switched to a remo controlled sound reverse dot, with an aquarian classic clear reso, and 42 strand gibraltar wires ….. pretty massive, the cs controls the ring when required….i sometimes add an aquarian studio ring to tame it even more….i consider it my main snare, though i have and regularly use an 5 acro, 5 vintage supra cob, 5.5×14 sensitone elite steel, 7×13 gretsch catalina mahogany and a 3×13 pearl maple picollo…..the bbb is pretty much what i would consider a ludwig black beauty if you dont wanna spend $600….i got mine for 160 on ebay….great deal.

Pork Pie Snare Drums Tested

Pork Pie Drums has been around since founder Bill Detamore started making drums as a hobby in 1987, but despite nearly two decades of building a devoted fan base in the drumming community, the company still retains somewhat of an underground feel. A smaller-scale manufacturer, what Pork Pie may lack in sheer size, it makes up for with daring designs that are both ear-grabbing and eye-catching. For its snares, drum kits, and hardware, the philosophy appears to be staying the original course: center the products around high-quality, often handmade materials, and keep the passion for drums alive. Lets check out a few of the companys unique snare drum offerings.

Re: Pork Pie Big Black Brass 14 X 65 Wow Gas

I know what you mean. I bought a used one a couple of months ago for $119. Sounded good with a Remo head but last week I put an Evans G1 on and oh my it sounds nice. I now have a hard time choosing which one goes on the kit…the Pork Pie or the Pearl Sensitone Elite aluminum.

They should bookmark a thread for this snare cause it comes up like every 2 weeks! I got it not too long ago and its my main snare nowde-thronin my Ludwig 400!! Mostly because its a little deeper and I can get a little more body and still have crack but mainly because it stays in tune ALOT better. Love my 400 but shes a high maintenance B& %$#!!!! The snare really has a great tuning range, sensitive, has awesome body, great crack when tuned up, awesome playing surfaces across the head. For $230- something its one of those snares that Id buy off the net without thinkin twice!

Pork Pie Big Black Brass 14 X 65 Wow Gas

While at the local store today I was playing the pork pie patina I been reading about and the luddie supralite . But I as I was testing those 2 they also had a Pork Pie Big Black Brass with tub lugs 14 x 6.5 and it was outstanding..No annoying snare buzz and the overtone was hardly noticeable it was there but very short sustain which is perfect for me..I poppped it a few times and the sound was sooo nice, I then did a few rolls up at 12 o clock and down to the center and I think I drooled on it a lil. Thing has so much articulation, I tuned it high and it was awesome, down low it was so fat thunderous.The price was $269 so I left thinking about the $75 gift card I had in my wallet and went home to read up on it..While reading up on it I found it at another online store for $206, the local matched the price so minus my $75 gift card I paid $131 for the snare..Only down side is I have to wait till the end of March to get it as it’s on back order.I am telling ya if you have never tried this snare I would highly recommend that you do, it sounds like one of those ridiculously priced snares you always hear about for less than half the ridiculous price. Can’t wait to get it.

X 7 Bullet Hole Vent Snare Drum

Clown puke are the words that Pork Pie itself uses to describe the hardware on this visually ballistic 14 x 7 snare with multiple vents . And by multiple, we dont mean two or three extra holes my count came up with 72 holes drilled in an arrowhead-type pattern through the 8-ply maple shell. You want ventilation for your snare drum? You got it.

Surrounding the edges of these holes is a silver glass glitter finish. Hues like bubble gum pink and bright blue abound on the powder-coated hardware, giving this big snare drum a carnival atmosphere. If you want something with visual impact behind the subtle flair of the Piglite, heres your drum. Even the most demanding extroverts should find this snare meets their criteria for arresting presentations.

Due to the much faster and more complete rush of air outside all those vents, the response of the drum is very dry. While the size can allow the Bullet Hole drum to achieve big volumes, the drum is also noticeably crisp and sensitive at very soft volumes. Many snare drums seem to mush up when played at pp or ppp, but this drum remains precise at the small end of the volume scale surprising for a drum that comes off like such a big brute.

Pork Pie Big Black Vs Brass Reference Snares

Probably a stupid question, but how much better is the Pearl Reference Brass snare 14×6.5 than the Pork Pie Big Black? My local music store just got one in and I have the Pork Pie Big Black. If I was to ever get the Reference, would there be a big difference in sound being that they’re both 14×6.5, and brass? Thanks!

Yeah – there is going to be a difference because the Pork Pie is either 1.3 or 1.5 mm thick and the Reference are 3 mm thick. They are going to be similar, but different animals. To make a determination that thicker is better might be jumping the gun – after all, the Black Beauty is a time honored winner among drummers and it’s going to be in the 1.3-1.5 mm range too.Also, one of the models of Reference brass snares is a rolled and welded shell, the other one is seamless – I imagine there would be both a price difference and a sound difference, but how they would compare to your Pork Pie is I think something that you can only notice when they are compared side by side. That’s how I see it anyway.
