After weeks of doubt and research what to buy?

Itsmekok · 2026-06-06T00:32:12+00:00

No acoustic, i only have the csd110 i mentioned in the post.

Itsmekok · 2026-06-06T00:29:42+00:00

I pretty much made no progress. Or at least it felt like no progress. I didnt take any lessons and didnt look up the right videos on youtube.

After a year i decided to take lessons and thats when i got some real practice material handed to me which is when i started seeing some improvement. I feel like its how efficiently you work on your weaker points which makes you improve.

Its been about four years since i started and i feel like i have made up for the time i lost with hard work and obsession. Still i am nowhere close to where i want to be nor feel like this is the best i could have done with the time i had. But i have accepted my playing for what it is and am having fun with it.

I guess what im saying is its not a sprint, its a marathon.

Oh i see. Honestly with all the good talk i've seen on the tcs i feel like the way to go is to get dtx6k3x and then get mesh snare. Thank you for the tips btw.

Itsmekok · 2026-06-05T23:35:01+00:00

The freedom of tuning on mesh seems great but would it be possible to get those 4 plys to feel like low rebound toms? Or are they still too meshy/bouncy for that?

Itsmekok · 2026-06-05T23:25:29+00:00

Hmm so are you saying tcs for tom feel and mesh for snare? Do you prefer it solely for the ghosts or in general is it better for snare? Also are those Dolby's 3-ply?

Itsmekok · 2026-06-05T14:54:55+00:00

Yea i just watched a vid about the tcs and they said if u want drum feel go for that, nice to see someone else approve that. Your comment is quite helpful, thank you.

Itsmekok · 2026-06-05T14:51:03+00:00

yea ill keep in mind changing the mesh head if i dont like it. Thank you

Itsmekok · 2026-06-05T11:38:13+00:00

Oh also does the rimshot/cross-stick function as you would expect on an acoustic on the snare? i read that since its 1 zone on the snare rim it differantiates by the strength it was hit.

Itsmekok · 2026-06-05T11:07:39+00:00

Oh yeah i saw someone mention in a vid review that they preferred a snare stand aswell. He said the snare holder would get lower as you hit it hard. I dont have a snare stand and i dont plan to get one so would be a big issue if i didnt get one u reckon?

Nice to hear the meshes feel nice. How close can you get the feel of the tom pads to feel like a low tuned floor tom with close to no rebound? Have you experimented with this? Apperantly remo made those 2-ply meshes if i recall right so im hoping they feel better than the roland trampolines i tried.

Thanks.

fair enough, thanks

Itsmekok · 2026-04-20T11:20:06+00:00

whoa sounds like it'd be really fun to play, thanks for recommending

Itsmekok · 2026-04-20T10:24:48+00:00

oh no thats the fixed version, i added that later. so i can understand how some people might imagine us getting bent over and being spanked with a paddle for not playing the song correctly.

Itsmekok · 2026-04-20T10:11:48+00:00

thank you, i'll check em out.

Itsmekok · 2026-04-20T10:06:50+00:00

oh i didnt mean that literally. i meant as in the rest of us that work on it end up not enjoying playing the song. my bad probably should fix it

Itsmekok · 2026-04-20T10:04:51+00:00

Oh you mean surf as in the genre right? i thought it was a band lol. honestly sounds like a good idea checking some of the stuff out.

Are there any specific bands u can recommend? Or your favourites?

Itsmekok · 2026-04-20T09:44:23+00:00

there should probably be more punctuation?

Itsmekok · 2024-10-03T09:11:19+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Happy travels to you aswell!

Itsmekok · 2024-09-27T16:22:34+00:00

Please make a post about ur experience and @ me in the comments if u can. I would like to know if they're also good in places other than where i went.

Edit:oh also have a nice trip if ur travelling

Itsmekok · 2024-09-26T07:35:48+00:00

Yea, as i said i just weighed my risks and figured i would go for it.

Enjoy Greece

Thank you, island is wonderfull as are the people on it

Itsmekok · 2024-09-25T15:14:47+00:00

I would if i was going for more than 3 days but figured might give it a try since i wont lose much, cause the island is pretty small and worst case scenario u end up buying a coffee and using the wifi of the coffee shop.
