ok here's the thing... this may sound silly but sorry for the noobines.... i plan to get a snare drum( 1st time getting a drum). so my question is:

-do i actually test the sound of the snare at the shop? or should i find reviews about the snare on the internet etc? because most shops i go to say that their snare is out of tune but they try to sell me the drum even though its out of tune..... and i do not know how it sounds....

so... can somebody help me please??
 
That's one thing I don't like about local drum shops. Then again, if you ask nicely and you're really serious about buying, their salesperson will let you try... well, they do at Sweelee at least.

Do find out more about the drum online first! But don't just rely on online samples and reviews to make your decision.
