WFL Jazz Snares- the Ultimate Quiet Snare Drums The View from the Top Series

This View from the Top video features two of my favorite Snare Drums: a WFL model 900 5.5" x 14" Super Classic, better known as the Buddy Rich WFL drum, and a 6.5 x 14 model 902 Symphonic Super Classic better known as the Ray McKinley snare drum. They are both from the 1950s and have the 3-ply mahogany shells with maple reinforcement rings. They also both use the great P-87 strainer and feature nickel over brass hardware and rims. They are great softer softer-sounding snares that work well for quieter acoustic music. you can really lay into them without worrying about taking the band out. The drumset used in this video is a Craviotto stacked Private Reserve kit. The sizes are Bass Drum 20"x15" Toms 10"x8" and 12"x8" Floor Tom 14" x 14" The Cymbals are: 21" 1950's K Ride 18" 1950's K crash/ride with rivets 16" 1960's K Ride Masterwork 24" Swish/China with Rivets 15" 1950's K Hi Hats The sticks are my own Signature Vic Firth maple drum set sticks.
