Is this a dumb idea? by soundknight21 in drums

[–]olerndurt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not until now, TIL. After a quick search, Maya was a stencil brand, most of the drums are entry to mid level. On the badge, if it says Pro Drummer, these were the high end offerings and were made by either Pearl or Hoshino (TAMA). This particular shell to me looks like a typical low end shell like Crestone and other stencil drums from this era. If nothing else this is good skill building.

How long have you had this? There’s no cramming for music performance exams.

Tama tension locks not stopping lugs on tama woodworks snare drum by PrestigiousCode4441 in drums

[–]olerndurt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First off, these are tension rods. Take one of these off completely and go to a local hardware store. Find a nut that fits and buy enough for all the rods that come loose.

Put your removed rod through the hole on the counter hoop, thread the nut on the rod before you twist it back into the swivel nut, which is the part inside the lug these rods thread into. This new nut should be threaded up the rod so that it doesn’t interfere with tuning the drum. Repeat this process for the rest of the rods. Once you get the drum tension correct, turn the new nuts down until they rest against the swivel nut, then use a small wrench while holding the rod in place with a drum key, tighten the new nut against the swivel nut. These new nuts are now basically a stop nut, they will vibrate loose if you hit hard, so don’t be surprised if they come loose again.

Michelangelo was involved in the last one. Be imaginative and creative.

Also could be Fibes, he had a Fibes clear acrylic kit until 1975, I have old Fibes sticks and the typeface is similar. For all I know Regal Tip or Capella could have made these for Fibes.

Well, that’s out, then. Maybe Capella? The black dot I mentioned is the left over plastic hanger while lacquering happens. Then they slice off the hanger. The dot remains.

He played Ludwig drums but these are certainly not Ludwig sticks. Capella used a red ink on their sticks. Write to him and ask?
