Do you think the phase “student model” gets a bad rep? #shorts #drums #tuning #studentmodel #demo

Don’t put your snare drums into a sonic box!

Just because this 1970s Rogers Drums and Hardware 14” x 5” R-360 steel shell snare drum was marketed as a student model doesn’t mean it’s an unusable snare drum.

Over the years, the phrase “student model” has gotten a bad rep because we tend to associate that with “inexpensive” drums that are what they are.

When we come across a drum like the Rogers R-360, we would write it off because it was just a starter snare compared to some of the higher-end drums made during that time.

Yet, after giving this snare some TLC with new wires, heads, and throw-off/butt, this snare drum came to life and might be one of my favorite-sounding snare drums.

This example shows that you can’t just write off a drum because of what it is or what it is perceived to be. You have to be willing to give it a chance to see what it can do.

It might just surprise you!

Anyways, have a fantastic week. I love you guys!! Okay. Byeeeee. ????????????????❤️????????
