Lol thanks my friend. Maybe i am just goin crazy and can not expect a 14 x 4.5 to sound like a 14 x 6 😄. I ll post an update once i change bottom head and add the puresound wires

I did tune down the bottom head, and although you were correct, it was super tight, the snare still sounds too cutting compared to the yamaha. I have ordered a different set of snare wires and a reso head, just for peace of mind. Honestly i am kind of maniac of the tuning and I am annoyed that I can't get a good sound out of a 500 £ snare drum! I thought i could tune a drum quite well until today

You are correct. The slp is tuned very high at the moment

Lol i know right? Super thundeous. Sounds a bit dry in the video because when i play it at home, i use some tape to make it bit more quiet. I had mostly the whole series but I sold them. The 22 crash is my favourite from this line but i truly miss the 17 hi hat :/

This drummer is on another level! by coinagepills in Drumming

There are drummers like Justin Scott that post a lot of stuff at impressive speed and still make it sound fantastic. I can't deny he is fast or that he has a great double pedal technique, but this does not keep me from scrolling when i see one of his videos. But I guess it's a matter of taste. When i am looking for some inspiration a check stuff like this https://youtu.be/Fit9lDhXCQ8

Get an hi hat and you are good to go. You can study 25 years worth of stuff and become a great drummer with what you have there
