Righteous And Red: Cherry Bomb Snare

The Cherry Bomb is a great drum. Finely crafted with attention to detail, it embodies a combination of design choices that work well together to make a drum that is versatile across the dynamic spectrum. Aluminum is a proven voice for snare drums, and the Cherry Bomb is a sterling specimen of what the metal can do. It has a retail price that reflects the painstaking craftsmanship put into the instrument, but doesn’t vault it into the rarefied air of the collector. This is a worthwhile “player’s drum” that happens to look great. Personally, I don’t need an all-red drum, or I would be sending Udrum my favorite message, “Sorry! Your review item was lost in shipping!”
