  • people say drum tuning isnt rocket science, well this video just contradicted that statement. maybe rocket science is an over statement, but theres plenty more to drum tuning then the average drummer knows. thumbs up, very informative and helpful video.

  • @xRockDrummah96 Thanks for the positivity Rock!

  • would it be bad if i were to take off my tom ive been playing for a month now, and re-tune it?

  • @laxplayer72 No... the more you explore the more you get closer to discover your SIGNATURE sound. Experiment, Experiment...EXPERIMENT!

    My choice of heads is Evans Metal is not my expertise but here are heads that might do the trick…

    Toms- Evans G+ Coated or EC 2-coated batters with EC-resonant on the bottom. Good projection combined with adequate durability

    Snare- ECS-RD and the Hazy 300 snare

    BD- The ONYX-EMAD batter and reso combination

    EQ pad inside the BD "not" touching the heads.

    Visit the Drummerworld" site and look for your fave drummers, where they often list their drum set-ups including heads.

  • @bobgatzen Haha your welcome ! I have a question for you and i think your the perfect guy to give me advice. Im buying a pearl masters mcx kit soon and i'll be again looking for a metal/rock sound. It comes stock with remo ambassador heads batter and reso the sizes are standard,14 snare, 12 tom, 13 tom and 22 bass drum. What heads do you recommend for a good metal/ rock sound ? Or should i stick with the remo's until they're worn ?

  • @TheBungadian Well thank you very much B! Nice message on a Monday morning...great way to start the week!

  • @bobgatzen Sweet as bob your a cool dude !
