I currently have 3 rack toms and 1 floor tom. 8, 10, 12 and 14.
I play old school Metal and the 8" is hard to tune and doesn't really belong. I am considering replacing the 8" w/ a 13" so I would then have 10,12,13 up and a 14 floor. Or, should I get a 16" floor tom?
With a 13, I already am set up for it and am used to the 3 up, 1 down. With a 16, it would probably sound better plus be a better configuration for what I play - Judas Priest. However, an extra floor tom won't fit in my trunk (I already have limited space in my car) and takes up more space on the stage.
Can anyone give me some additional thought for the benefits one way or the other?
