I have a Ludwig Black Beauty snare, and since I got it about 6 months ago, after playing a couple songs at least one of the lugs (by my left leg) comes loose. As a result, the middle of the snare becomes very loose and dents.
I have tried to keep on top of it by retuning the drum after every song or two to stop it coming loose (if I leave it, it becomes so loose it falls out) but this just means it's coming out of tune and not sounding as good as it can.
Does anyone know why this happens or anyway to fix it?
Also, since it came in the mail, it's had little rubber washers on each lug, not sure what they're there for, but I left them on. They wouldn't be causing it would they?
