Hey guys, ill get right o the point, im a fairly small dude maybe 5 6", and I always have an issue with height on my drums. I have one of those generic CB Drum stools, the adjustment is a screw based one and it has galvanised or rusted,(I forget which wor it is) so its pretty much stuck at the same or at a increased height.
I always like to play the drums usually with me towering over the tom toms but with my CB Drums it just doesnt really feel possible as the tom shells are relatively thick and its usually hard to position them well enough, the only way I can position them the way I like is that if I raise my drum throne height but that causes strain on my legs and it feels harder to use pedals.
If you were in my position what would you reccomend as a good solution to this? I am already investing in shorter tom arms so I can position the toms easier but what would you say the main problem is.
My Drum throne or my Drums shells?
