I like to have the rack tom low as well. I like to hit it with a downward motion as opposed to a forward motion (if that makes sense). I have pretty much switched to a 20" kick, and I absolutely LOVE how low I can get the rack tom now! If I wanted, I could probably have it about as low as my snare, but I like it being a little above. Check out the picture:
In addition, if I was going for a vintage vibe with those Pearls with the flat stands and wrap, I'd get this reso head. I love the look of it:
Currently, I'm stripping away the rack tom and crash. These days, when I'm playing with the band, I play with a kick, snare, floor tom, hats, and one crash/ride. I'm loving the smaller set up!
I have seen the retro Pearl decals and I'm debating doing that too. That would be cool. One more thing to add to my vibe list
