Millenium SD-148A Black Beast Snare

I use this as my main snare and it has everything that I need. I changed the stock head for the EVANS head of my choice and it sounded incredible the moment that I started to play it. Amazing value for such a snare. It looks pretty cool too, and the throw off is very functional.
I actually chose this over a high end Mapex Orion wood snare - to me, it honestly sounds better.
Millenium make fantastic things.

Bought this one clueless of how remarkable it sounds.
Had to do a top skin change to a Kevlar one, since I needed a bit more of attack, but without the excessive metalic resonance.
Even with the original skin I was able to do a lot of rehearsals without feeling the need to replace it.
As far as the shell goes it has a perfect finish and the lugs are an "easy tuning" ones.
Great (and big) snare if you love that fat type of tone from the 90's

I purchased this snare for practicing and recording in my home studio. Tuning was smooth and easy. I put a gel pad to the batter head and I am very very satisfied with the sound. Really what I wanted! The drum itself looks great and desirable and I could not see any problems with quality. I will never regret this purchase and highly recommend it! pros: can be loud if needed, nice sound played soft and hard, with and without snares, great look, cons: ?

The sound is amazing. Clearly, loudly, that's it. It looks elegant, beautiful top models. Let's see how to show themselves during a long operation

I love the sound on this snare. I didn't even really need to tune it. It was perfect, and the sound is just what I was looking for.

I also bought this for my 13 year old son ( big Nikko McBrain / Iron Maiden fan )
Sounds Great, Looks Great - is great
Excellent value for money - would highly recommend this to budding bangers out there

I like this snare. It is not expensive but sound is very good and cut through strong metal riffs.

Wow did this snare take some time to get the metallic over hang ring out.
