    Remo quality issues

    I have been using Remo heads for over 30+ years. Over the last two/three years I have noticed a major drop in quality. In the last six months I have sent Remo pictures/e-mails of flaking coating of several heads that happened after "only tuning". They replaced one head, but would not replace...

    Pearl Sensitone

    I recently purchased a Pearl Sensitone 14x5 snare. I have a nice maple Pearl MMX snare but was thrusting for a pearl steel snare for the sound I grew up with "Ludwig". I have played and owned many snares and must say the Sensitone snare is a killer snare, even against snares much greater in cost.

    Remo 24" Coated Powerstroke Pro

    After a "three month" back-order the new head finally arrived. I will say I love it because, Remo finally made a bass head that does what it was designed for. Very loose lug tension with sub sonic low end...

    Kick drum as floor tom

    I'm currently reconfiguring my set-up. The biggest change will be trying to figure out how to mount my 22" kick drum (I will still use my 24" kick as my main bass with dbl peddles) as a floor tom mounted to the right side of my 16"x16" floor tom. I have seen drummers use a large floor tom that...

    What size drum do you not like tunning

    After playing and tunning just about every Major drum shell manufacture, I have found that tunning a 13" tom is the trickiest one of all to tune. I think its due to many things, but it never falls to be a bugger to tune no matter the head,manufacture or so on. I was wonder what size drum gives...

    Drum kit covers

    I'm curious to find out just how many of us drummers are using some sort of drum kit cover to keep our kits clean and dust free when not in use? I have been using over sized black king sized bed sheets for years.

    Fresh skins for the Masters

    I thought I would share my Pearl Masters Custom MMX with a full fresh set of heads. My configuration is somewhat like what Tommy Lee has used over recent years. I even prefer a 24"and 22" kick set up. Hope you enjoy?
