I have it and its amazing. You definitley get your moneys worth and then some. It has amazing body, and a really nice crack. I added some Puresound Blasters and the snares are just amazingly sensitive. My favorite snare right now!!

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

Ive been playing this Pork Pie Big Black Brass snare for a year now and I want to tell everyone that is looking for a replacement or addition to your kit snare that for the dollars spent you would be hard pressed to find a better drum. When I received my BBB it came stock with generic heads both snare and batter. The drum sounder very good with these heads and one wouldnt need to change heads until you needed to. I did however change to a Remo coated Ambassador batter and an Ambassador snare side head. I have a vintage 6.5×14 Slingerland chrome over brass snare and have always loved the full bodied sound of that snare tuned tight and the Pork Pie gives me that same full sound when tuned high. The snare being black chrome over brass with ten tub lugs is also quite pleasing to the eye as well as its sound. The drum seems to be very versatile in its tuning range but for me the fullness of sound and crack you get when tuned high is simply awesome. At a $240 price tag this drum is a great deal and could be found for even less if you shop around.Bottom line if you want a high quality great sounding snare at an affordable price give this drum a look. Im glad I did.

Tunings/heads For A Pork Pie Big Black Brass

I got this snare back in october and I changed the standard heads for a combination of Evans Hazy 300 + Reverse Powercenter. Ive been using it with those since and although I get a nice sound from it I still cant get that sound that Ive heard in other brass snares. I have the snares very tight with the batter quite cranked and the reso less tight . Can anybody reccomend some tunings thatll get me a full bodied/powerful crack without much overring? Maybe I should change the batter for a muffled one or a double ply, but before that I want to try all the options I have with my current heads.Thanks,MiguelPS: I play heavy/thrash metal and one well known snare sound that I like a lot is Lars in the MoP, Justice and Black albums, to give you an idea.

right now because id idnt get the chance yet to buy new heads yet i slapped on my old but still usable remo powerstroke x and it works well. i dont tune it that high. the stock reso is cranked, the stock snares are loose and the batter head is about id say mediumish. i get a fat sound. when i bought the snare the pork pie snare was CRANKED and it sounded kinda cool too, but it choked the drum badly. after much debate and discussion ive decided to loosen my heads and stop choking the batters. i find you get a fatter sound when its about medium tension as oppossed to super tight.

Manufacturer’s Description From Pork Pie

Need Info On Pork Pie Snare

Hi guys! Went to a music shop today and saw a Pork Pie Snare, 13×7, Brass w/Patina finish. Nice looking drum and thought it sounded good, but on the dry side. I have no experience with Pork Pie, and did some investigating. The reviews ran the gamut, from praise to criticism of over-all quality. Ive been told that with brass, its best to have a bit of a ring and some overtones, because then you can always dampen the drum. A dark drum cannot be adjusted to be brighter. Typically, I do like a darker snare and prefer an open sound. And I believe in keeping the inherent quality of the drum itself, without dampening. In other words, a good drum will sound good without any dampening. However, I have no qualms about using a dry head like an Evans Genera Dry. I have a DW Collectors Series Snare 14×6.5, Chrome over Brass. One bit of moongel does the trick. I do not dampen the rest of my kit. The price of the drum was $319 at the shop, but found it less expensive to buy on line. Ive never purchased drum equipment on line, and would like your thoughts on that also.Thanks much!!!

Pork Pie Big Black Brass Snare Vs Pork Pie Patina Brass

6.5Ã14 Patina Brass â Pork Pie Percussion

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.
