So... I put an Evans Genera dry head on it.
poof, 1979 is back. David  DW Design series black nickel over brass snare drum review.
Tune it high Tune it low Swap out the heads, I've put ambassadors on it at one point, though they currently have the stock heads on them. Use sticks, wands, brushes, or brooms, this instrument is nuanced and colorful when asked, it will sing when you want, cracks when required. David Yep, another one.  I had no idea Tama made such wonderful instruments. ETA July. Backordered!

Gretsch Broadkaster drums, Bebop sizes. I tuned this puppy up, way up and ping. Jazz Heaven. Someday I'll be worthy of them. |
