The Original 13"

While in studio, our drummers 13" snare drum was 12db louder in the kits mix. We didn't have time to mess with tape, new heads, etc.Pros:Overall the BFSD was a quick solution to bring the snare volume down in our mixes without asking our drummer to change how he played. Final sound was fatter, damper and level.Cons:Takes away "some" stick bounce back and if you like a "ring" to your tone you will loose that. We liked this full coverage with thumb tab over the donut version.

makes my poppy 13x5 immediately change to a Slingerland radio king! deep and great for ballads!

Great Product..really changes the sound of the snare..ultra fat, low end is killer

This has added a very professional sound to my snare…… a lesser use for moon gell.Also purchase one for my TAMA Piccolo Snare.

Yes it did change the sound of my snare completely. More muffled. I’m not sure if it really sounds “bigger.” It does kill some of the bounce. Sometimes I use it sometimes I don’t. I can say that I don’t love it, but I won’t say that I hate it.

Great way to get a nice deep tone on your snare. My go to product for my snares.

Excellent drum head does the job.

Nothing can replace an actually deep, warmer snare drum, but this is a cool little option. Makes it really difficult to do drags and stuff, but when you want a quick change of tones on the fly with your small set-up or bar gig, this ain't half bad.
