I know at first you were against rewrapping because of tightness with the heads. But now that you have removed the original wrap you couls go with one of the new thinner wraps and either have them...

Believe me I bought a Taye kit on a whim just about a year ago, the ProX series I have had close to 35 drum sets in my life. A lot of top brands, and I like these Taye's as well as any. The are very...
So sorry to see this. I have had two sets ruined by UPS. But there is a lot to be said about how the drums were packaged in the first place. Good luck and I hope all goes well for you.
I began looking for a cajon a few months ago. I listened to a bunch of youtube sound clips, and for me the Koph Birch Series filled everything I wanted. When I received the cajon it was all that I...
I've always had very god results with the EMad heads. I actually like them better than the Superkick series or the Powerstroke heads. One thing I will suggest is that you at least put something like...
Now that you have had them for a while and have got to play them, I was wondering you how you like the DW reso head. I have always thought that it would be the best of both worlds. Instead of having...
I have never got to play a set of those, but I have heard great reviews about them. If you get them please let us know how you like them. John
On my Renowns 24,13,16 I run Evans coated G2's over coated G1's. Great warm, low tone. John
Beautiful job. I'm sure you will have many happy hours in there. John
Sticks, I've really enjoyed this so much. Reminds me of Levon Helm's Midnight Ramble or Daryl Hall's new show Welcome to Daryl's House. What a cool place you would have to host a regular jam session....
Glad to hear that he will be getting them back. Hope this doesn't happen to anybody else. Just remember to use your head and try to avoid situtations that could lead to trouble. John
Longgun, When I talked to my agent abount the insurance I made a list of all of the equipment and took pictures.
Marko138, If your insurance agent told you that they wouldn't insure your drums...
That is a sad but true story. In our society today nothing or nobody is safe. I recently acquired a not too expensieve Mapex kit to take to our weekly jam session. I bought these drums to leave at...
Jackie, I do not want to start an argument here, but your first statement is not true. Thinner heads do not resonate more. Look it it up. It's a physics thing, the heavier the head the more it...
Redneck, Stop and look at a powered HotSpot $200.00 plus. Same thing for alot less and IMHO works just as well. I've used this several times in different situtations and has worked super good every...
Here's what I have used in the past,in a pinch. Find a used practice guitar amp. One of those little cheap ones with about a 8 or 10 inch speaker, and about 15 watts. Plug it into the monitor out...
I've heard sound clips on another forum, and you wouldn't believe how wonderful these drums sound. The tone is soooo pure. They sound just as full at a light touch as they do from a powerful strike....
Interesting video, but lets not confuse showmanship with great drumming. Take some of those drummers and put them on a 4 piece set and see how much they could inspire you. Take away the 14 piece drum...
You also might want to try Evans G-Plus series. They are single ply but are 12 mils thick, which is 2 mils thicker than Ambs or G 1's. They sound really nice on my Gretsch Bop kit. I use the frosted...
Your mixer is a stereo mixer, but it can be used as two mono amps. 1 amp driving mains and one driving monitors. If you are using it that way you are only getting a mono signal to your headphones. At...
Back to the Weckl system. Looks to me to be too much of a pain trying to adjust it. Having to take a head off to adjust and then doing it all over to adjust again if you idin't get it right the first...
Those turned out beautiful !!!! I had a Mapex Saturn kit and did the walnut interiors with linseed oil which is very simular to tung oil and the results were stunning. I just recently bought a...
