    Re: Wraps

    I did mine and there is only a strip about 1" that goes on the wrap itself. Nothing sticky is attached to the drum. The wrap is cut so that it has about 1/4" space on the top and bottom. My...

    I have a Mapex Black Panther snare sitting in my spare room for the last 4-5 years. Maybe I'll turn it into a tom.

    Re: Really Old Drums

    Heel down. I sit higher than most so there is literally no weight on my foot and that allows me to play the bass with virtually no effort.

    "Nothing sounds good in the room where the kit sits....all hard surfaces"

    Re: DialTune Snare

    I like it, a lot, I think that it's pretty trick. The cost is about average for what I've seen other top of the line snares go for. Make no mistake about it, this is a well-made snare.
