I see you and Dude-on-Drums have the Akira Jimbo snare.. That snare is hot. I think it is similar to my last snare. The Yamaha Steve Jordan. I had to trade it in because that thing kept detuning. I had to keep the key on the lug to tighten during songs   ::)

True, but they are designed to 'play themselves' - an extreme amount of force is needed to get the optimal volume and spread from the HHX Evolution series.  They are not really classified in weighs, but if you had to put that designation on them, they would be considered as thin (to almost paper thin). 

That's the inherent problem of the wavy edge syndrome - user error.   I know of a local guy that has the wave edge syndrome.  Then again, he's not a light player, either.  For those situations, the HHX Evolution isn't suited for that type of playing style.

Thanks, dude! 


Yep - it's a nice drum, man.  I'd have to disagree with the similarity with the Steve Jordan and Akira Jimbo snare by the way of several virtues:

Steve Jordan
6.5" x 13" 4-ply all-Maple shell, 6-ply reinforcement hoop, and non-plated 20-strand snares.

Akira Jimbo
7.5"x13" 8-ply Beech shell and 19-ply, 6-hole maple hoops. Hi-carbon steel snares are used.

By this alone, these drums are as different as the palm of my hand as compared to the top of my hand.   ;D

Ouch!  I know that you had to have been waiting for a minute to get the MW kit.  How long will it take to receive your corrected order?
