This particular head is a Power head, made by Schlebach in Basel, Switzerland. They're pricey, but last for a really long time. The previous batter head I took off was on there for two and a half years. They are a polyester weave. A gentleman named Lee Caron in Boston is also now importing Swiss Kevlar heads for sale as well. We are currently building a new press, which is why there is not yet a second video. Hopefully both the press and the video will be done soon. Thanks for the comments!
Thanks! It is about time that somebody made a video to explain this. I've got a rope drum that I want to change heads on but I didn't want to take it apart for fear I would never get it back together correctly. Is there a brand name for that pre-tensioned drum head? What kind of press do you use to finish tuning?
