Hello, HOD'ers.

Has anyone tried out the Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute 13"x5" snare? I'm snare hunting and this particular one has been recommended/shortlisted. I wanted something quite tight and poppy (hence the 13") but with a little more depth and body than a full-blown piccolo of 14"X3/12" or something.

Any encounters/opinions would be very much appreciated.
