Now this is extremely helpful info @someguy01, I use whatever washers come with said drum but will now consider using better (different) lug screws or most likely washers. This is great info.
The plastic washers work well, and I would imagine and as @Justinhub2003 has attested, leather washers would work well as the leather would absorb a nice amount of vibration in addition to making a nice locking fastener from the surface friction.
Those are slick !! I can't top those but here's a couple pics of my new Tama PAL146 Starphonic aluminum 14x6 snare that the nice FedEx man just dropped off for me. Clik to enlarge.
Great, this one is in my list for an aluminium snare, competing with the Dunnet 2N aluminum, I think I will get both in fact, maybe the Tama in 6" (only in 6" by the way) and the Dunnet in 5.5"? Or in 6.5", I will ask your opinion here when I will be there!!!
I picked up the 22” Sabian HHX Anthology hi Bell and 14” HHX Anthology hi Bell hats today to go with the 18” HHX anthology Hi Bell I picked up a couple weeks ago to complete the set . I have not been this excited about a Sabian cymbal series since the Sabian Artisan was introduced .
These Anthology cymbals are beautiful versatile cymbals that feel great to play and they work well with the Artisan cymbals and HHX Complex cymbals I already owned .View attachment 118102View attachment 118103View attachment 118104View attachment 118105View attachment 118106View attachment 118107
This is a great one, it's the Mike Johnson's signature cowbell, I have this one for more Latin and a bit of everything while I'm using the LP Chad Smith's red rider cow bell for rock, this is a great cowbell, you will love it...and with the little magnets it comes as the, you could really Taylor the sound of it to the music you play.
Not exactly drum gear, but I just ordered a full PA system for my home practice space: a processor/mixer with four preamps and twelve channels, two 15" mains with stands, and two mics with stands.
Why have I done this? I have musicians in and out for various reasons. Having a permanent PA onsite is easier than requiring players to haul one in as needed. This is a wise investment that will pay for itself quite quickly.
You're right, it always pay, you can have easily people coming and playing with you, I did this in buying mics for a drums kit way before I had the kit but the idea was the same, proposing product to people who may not have them so, they could play with you even without having what they might need...Like the Mike's for my singers belong to me, etc...bass and guitar. The same...

Yea the Canopus leather bolt tight washers are great. Every drum I buy gets them. I do use them in conjunction with whatever came though, I just add 2 to Each tension rods with the plastic washer sandwiched between the leather
Is it a 14 x 6,5? If I'm not mistaking the Worldmax shell is the same as my Ludwig Black Magic(?)
I had the original version with all black hardware and later replaced the rods with chrome ones and put s-hoops on it to give it a more 'fake' BB look.
I really like the snare, works great for classic rock.
Remarkable: after the 7 year break I pulled the BM out of its case last weekend to check the tuning and it was still perfectly in tune, even each rod!
Went ahead and ordered the 6x21" Pearl Rocket Tom to finish of that collection. Also got a 6" clear Pinstripe for it and a PC-8 to mount it on my rack. Have all the hardware i need to mount it Simon Phillips wise, so will post some pics after i have everything set up
Nice drum... would love to hear your review of it. BTW, I really miss the Mike and Mike (Johnston and Dawson) Modern Drummer podcast. It was a great team combo of super positive teacher and massive gear head.

Beyerdynamic DT700 PRO X, the latest addition to the famous Beyerdynamic range of studio headphones, introduced in 2021. I'll use it as my main monitor for whatever recordings, including drums. It doesn't reduce bleed as much as the Ultrasounds, but good enough to not let any click get into the microphones and to keep the real drums out of the monitor mix. Since I'm not only recording drums but many other signals as well, it's much more versatile than a purely drum-oriented monitor.
There's just a single version of this headphones @ 48ohms, which makes it loud enough without introducing any kind of distortion (even with a subkick added to the monitor mix). The sound can be described as very linear, not emphasizing bass or treble. It has a great response to transients. Bass signals don't get muddy or indifferent. It is all in all quite close to what I hear on my Neumann KH310 without the physical bass sensation. In fact while exercising my first tests on the drum set I had to put it off from now and then to see that it's really the microphones I'm hearing and not the real set bleeding into the phones because of its "realness".
It's very light compared to the cancellation it provides and doesn't put much pressure on the ears. It sits very comfy, fully enclosing the ears and can be worn for hours. Everything is replaceable, including the 3m long cable, which is also a great plus. So far I'm totally happy with it. I recorded an upright piano, drums and acoustic guitar on my own by now and had a female singer testing it with great success.
After using the 770 PRO 80ohms for quite some time now this is a great improvement.
