So I recently put Evans Onyx heads on my Yamaha Stage Custom. I love the tone it gives on my 16 inch. It's powerful, dark, full, and a little bit of thud. But as my drums get smaller the tone is lost and replaced with just a thud. I undertand for some that thud is just what they are looking for. But I like a nice full bodied tone with mine as well. And I
enjoy the dark tone the Onyx gives. So I was thinking, wouldn't it be interesting if the drum heads themselves became progressively thinner, in a small amount, as the drums themselves got smaller. Sort of like how Danny Carey's set gets thinner each drum. What do you guys think? Would that acheive my desired effect, or would it just weaken the tone by thinning it? Or do they already adjust that per drum and im just asking more from
the head then it can give. Just a random thought I had, exuse any misspellings, I'm on my phone.
