@kmandill8 french grip gives better speed with less wrist movement it is used very comenly by many pro drummers

@JeremyRice3 dude that's way to often mike portnoy changes his heads every 2 months if you play hard youl usually break a head 4 u need to change it on a snare i hope your not breaking a head every two weeks:P maybe u should switch to g2s ?:P

[manseaua]

@Massy012 yup drums always sound better and there is no exception if you tune to notes but no one can tell you what note to tune usually use intervals of minor thirds between heads it well give the least ring (usually)

[manseaua]

@aburdido no it doesn't hahaha are u dumb? i can it my snare as hard as i can with a stick but taping it with a key hurts it :P sure bud think about how hard i can hit you with a drumstick then with a drum key

[DennyArcher]

that snare sounds terrible haha

[aburdido]

Dont hit with that key.. it hurts your tama heads... so you sell more and more ;=)

[Massy012]

A lot of help, although I have a question. Like you said you can change the top skin to a tone which suits you best, does that apply to the bottom skin or does that need to be set to a specific tone?

[JeremyRice3]
