How often do you think a drum should be tuned? Once a week, once a month?
What kind of strain does it put on the head to be tightened and then loosened more frequently? And on the flip side of that question, what kind of strain does it put on the head to be out of tuned or have part of the head be tight and the other part to be more loose?
If you tune a drum more frequently will it stay tuned longer or will it slip out of tune easier?
Do the lugs and screws take any strain from constant tuning and detuning?
How does frequent tuning affect the shell itself, especially on the edge?
Are the hoops affected by tuning and detuning?
