So I’ve searched and I see all kinds of aluminum vs brass threads and videos, but nothing I can find comparing bell Brass (actually bronze right?) with aluminum. I’m down to really 2 snares that I am stuck between, both are cast I believe. Gretsch Bell Brass and the Noble & Cooley Alloy. The videos I’ve seen of both are really right in the wheel house of what I like. A nice dry crack with just a hint of overtone. I’m leaning toward the Bell Brass as it seems even a little dryer in videos I’ve watched, but that also seems opposite of what I would expect.
Anyone have experience with both? Thanks!
