Bass Hank-Drum Made from Propane Tank - Dennis Havlena

This is a lower-pitched version of my invention - the propane-tank hank drum, which is on YouTube at:

Notes here are A(ding),E,G,A,C,D,E,G
which makes it A-minor Pentatonic scale.
I built it mostly out of curiosity to see what a lower pitched instrument would sound like. As might be expected, it isn't as bright as my conventionally-pitched drum -- not quite as loud either. Still, it's fun to play and pretty mellow sounding.
Again, my intent here is not a slick
"performance" but rather just diddling
"out loud". Dennis Havlena
PS: I apologize for the brevity of most
of my videos -- we have only dial-up
internet out here in the sticks of
northern Michigan, with little chance
of high-speed ever coming. Youtube times
out if I try to upload larger videos.
