    Re: Splinting drumsticks

    you either need to really focus on technique and not hitting rimshots all the time (that will really add dynamics to your playing as well) or, option2: drop your snare stand an inch or so. Option 3:...

    Re: Bass Reso Head Question

    For something like that, buy the reso head you want, then go to a sign maker and have them cut a vinyl decal for you. If it's a one color design it will be easy and pretty cheap to have done. A good...

    Re: PA for e-drums? Is there a way?

    Agreed. If your end goal is reduce noise then amplifying the drums seems counter productive. I second the suggestion of buying a good pair of isolation headphones.
