Morgan Rose Signature Snare

Thought I'd share some photos of Morgan's signature snare... they're not mine, more's the pity! They're from PearlDrummer8, in this thread over at Field of Solitude.

Steel shell, 14"x5" (not 5.5!), almost identical to the Chad Smith Sig Snare. The finish is different (the CS has a black nickel plating, which makes it a little darker sounding than plain steel) and the snare strainer looks like a Pearl standard instead of the Gladstone-type. Those that have seen both side by side claim the MR has a thicker shell than the CS. Stainless steel lugs and tension rods.

On the cosmetic side, the finish is a weird-neat green, and the Alien Freaks around the side glow in the dark.

Oh, and it's got that 42-strand set of snares!!

42-strand sets FTW! I had 'em on everything but my Canopus snares, and they friggin' rule, especially on a Dunnett, where they become lethal weapons of mass eardrum destruction.

I'll have to watch GC for when they hit the stores, I never liked the Chad Smith, but you never know, if the finish is lacquered it'll have a different effect on the sound than nickel plating. I'm surprised it has triple-flanged hoops, though, I'd have definitely thought die-cast for a drummer like Morgan.
