An increase in depth, beyond a certain point, increases the amount of overtones - both ones you want, & ones you don't want. It effectively takes the drum's delivery further away from the fundamental. The "boom" you refer to is partly the resulting overtone soup. There's nothing wrong with deep drums, they can sound great, but it's all about controlling those overtones. A shallower drum will deliver a higher ratio of fundamental to overtones. That gives it a clearer sound & greater tonal definition.How the hell do u tune a 22 x 20 kick? I've gotten better sounds from my tama rockstar and pearl export kick drums. it's too boomy for me I can get it in good tune. Help!
The only "hard" part about the surgery will be putting in new re-rings. I'm sure DW can do it, but they will probably charge a premium for it.
...(assuming DW has a clear finish inside)...

DW generally does not finish the insides of their shells unless you specifically request them to do so. Even then, its typically a dye to color the wood to match the exterior, but they don't do any sort of sealing to the wood (shellac, lacquer/poly/nitro) to their toms or bass drums . They have interior lacquering as an option on snare drums to add a bit more brightness to them, but that's the only drum I know they do this to.
Thanks everyone.
I use superkick 2 on the beater side and Evans 3 something on reso, 5 inch port hole
