I have been a drummer since the age of 9. I have played with several bands including Edgar Vasquez, Boni Maurico, Grupo Montu, Grupo Revivir with Dan Salinas, Los Cuatro Rosas with Greg paredes, just to name a few. I have used several brands of drums thru out the years. I have traveled thru the USA and Mexico playing with my current band Tony Tigre. The sound and the beat of the snare drum makes rhythm come to live. I enjoy playing music and finding new sounds with every snare drum i get. My Dallas snare drums have high quality sounds and are versatile for all styles of music. I recommend Dallas drums to any drummer out there.
