TAMA Marching Percussion?

"DOH" :lookaround:

The snare unit patent looks much like the old Rogers Dyna-Sonic snare guard to me. Everyone trying to reinvent the wheel...don't you think ! :ph34r:

Yup, looks like the two pieces perpendicular to the main frome are adjustable to provide more control over the tension of the snares against the resonant head. Eliminates the popular tape strips of the past 20 years. This could be cool, I loved the Dynas, played them in'66-69 Albion Grenadiers.

My basement shop should be the envy of any vintage marching snare collector just now, as I have 8 or 9 vintage 12x15 Dynasonics sitting down there that will be getting restored this winter in preparation for next year's Classic Cavaliers line. ^0^

Interesting...

Ya know...the way the tubes are supported at the bottom of the drum...looks an awful lot like Premier !

That snare cage (for lack of better term) looks just like the old Rogers Dynasonic.

Those were some killer snare drums!

I have a 1979 "Big R" COB Dynasonic on my kit. Best sounding snare I've ever heard. I'd love to nab an old marching Dynasonic for my collection.
