I've had my new Mapex kit for over a month now. 100%maple, 12x14, 16x16, 16x18 and 18x26 I originally replaced the stock heads with Remo Coated Emperors (batter) Remo Coated Ambassadors (reso). It took me a little over a week to tune the drums the way I like them, I figured this was due to me not being use to the bigger shells. All was well. No problem at first as I really liked (not loved) the sound however I noticed that after a few days of playing they would lose their tune a little. Especially the floor toms.
A few days ago I went out and purchased a set of Evans Coated SST EC2s for my toms. I expected a change but OMG, I didn't expect such a dramatic change. I love the sound, I tuned only once and I've been playing them everyday and no change in tune.I know subtle adjustments are always expected but overall no change. Just sharing an observation.
