Fixing a Torque drum set

[V-cloak]

Is it possible/advisable to remove the outer plastic- like layer of Torque shells to make them sound a little better?

I've never heard of or seen these. Got any links or pictures?

I assume you're talking about the wrap. Removing the wrap, as it is known, wouldn't improve the sound , to my knowledge. But no, it certainly wouldnt affect the drum in any way, just change the colour to the shell colour underneath.

If you're looking for a better sound, may i suggest new heads and if you have them, a tuning key.

I suggest you try to adjust the tension of the heads ,or maybe even try to muffle the drum to get the sound you are looking for ( or to get rid of the sound you dont want ). I wouldnt remove the wrap unless there is something wrong with the color of it .

I agree with everyone else on this, just tune them up to your liking before making any durastic changes. Taking off wraps can be a pain.

wraps have been known to choke the drum a bit but not enough to make an over the top difference
practice tuning
and fresh heads
dont neglect the resonant heads
they make a huge difference

Thanks, but the problem is solved. I removed the wraps, and it didn't hurt anything. They look incredible. Look on youtube "Sweet Drumset by Sandi Smith" and you will see what I mean. And I cannot find any information on this type of set, no matter how hard I look. Good or bad? lol
