Those putting the sticks to the Pearl Chad Smith Signature snare drum love the classic crack of this higher-pitched snare, which makes itself heard with excellent volume and rich tone. A very sensitive head provides excellent range and good control. Drummers of all genres like it, but as expected, it rates highest among rockers and metal players. The snare shell holds up well in both looks and sound durability.
