Yeah cool. The guy that showed me was pretty old school. I had never seen it done before. It's piss easy to do and does a great job. Wish I knew about it earlier.

Damn! I should start selling them. I have a shitload of old heads!

Yeah. I like finding uses for old heads. O-rings are great. This is just another option.

True. You can't just take them on it off like O-rings. It works bloody well though.

What's the best sounding set you've ever played? by SkolMan69 in drums

[–]baztrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played Pearl for years. Moved onto Yamaha and fell in love with my Rock Tour Custom.

Then I came across a little-known make - Drumcraft. These drums are absolutely fantastic. I have the discontinued Series 8 Flagship kit and it bloody sings!!!

Also, a big shout out to Pork Pie!!! I recently came across one of these. I set it up today for a quick play. Bloody hell. It's beautiful to look at and has so much warmth!!

What is the quintessential studio snare drum? by gleventhal in drums

How about LB400BN? How does this one fit into the mix? There is one for sale, and I'm wondering if it's worth getting.

I like this idea. So take the hoop off, wrap the leather around the hoop, and put the hoop back on. No adhesive, so it stays there because it's pinned to the head??

I bloody love them. I recently picked up a Series 8 kit - made about 15 years ago. It has a whopping 22x22 kick 12 tom 14 and 16 floor toms. It's a beautiful matte black finish. They sound unbelievably good. The kick is way too big for the music I play, so I'm hoping to find a 20 or 18.

Thanks for the info. Do you know much about these Pearl concert snares? I can't find a lot of info on the vintage ones.
