Heyyyy, i have a Tama Starclassic Performer with birch shells that i am considering getting new heads for. What I'm going for is that really jazzy, but still able to bang on, kind of sound that Mitch Mitchell, Keith Moon, Ginger Baker and the likes achieve. Right now I'm using 2 toms (12X12 as the high and 14X14 for the floor) and the 14X5 inch birch snare that the set came with, along with the 20X22 inch kick. Right now my snare heads are way too heavy (top and bottom) and i also would like a more punchy jazzy rock sound from the bass drum. I just have no idea what kinds of heads to buy for this purpose, as far as brand model names and such, but I guess I'm gonna be looking for something pretty thin all around right? Advice please!! Thanks a bunch.
