Hello All,
Do any of you use diplomats on the bottoms of your toms? If so, I'd be interested to know what you use for batters and how the dip's differ in tone from say the usual clear ambassodor bottom heads.
I found clear Diplomats to shorten the resonance of my first set of standard-sized 12'' 13'' and 16" Ludwig toms. Both sides tuned to the same pitch. Clear Pinstripe batters. Switched right back to clear Ambassador bottoms. Warmth and resonance restored. I still prefer Ambassador Snare Side, too. Just personal taste.
I have them on my 13 and 16 Ludwig toms. On top I had clear Emperors , now G12's. My experience is the same as above, however I like the shortened resonance so I've kept them on.
