    Default Adding a timbale?

    So there's a 10" PDP timbale on amazon for cheap right now. The problem is I don't know the rod size, and I can't find it anywhere. It looks like one of those standard percussion mounts. I have a few 10.5 tom mounts. If I have to go buy another mount, it's not really worth it. Any ideas on the size?

    I think PDP stuff all uses 10.5mm - DW and Gretsch use 12.5mm

    Chris Layton usually has one on his kit, and it sounds great. I've thought of adding one as well.

    It’s here! A lot heavier than expected. Very good quality. Will test it out tomorrow.

    I don’t know why all my pics upload low quality

    Looks solid Mike! Does it need a L-rod mount?

    Off topic: My pics sometimes defaults to a low resolution when I post here. It seems like a random thing. If I post multiple pics (4), one pic will be low resolution while the others get uploaded without any changes.

    It has one of those generic percussion mounts with an eye bolt. Fits the 10.5 rod perfectly
