Bass Drum Head – If you are going to cut a hole in your bass drum resonant head remember that this will affect the sound of your bass drum. The larger the hole, the larger the impact on the sound will be. Anything larger than 7″ will sound like there is no head at all.

Know a Golfer? – You can use an old golf club bag to carry your cymbal stands and other hardware.

New Drum Heads – New drum heads will stretch out shortly after being mounted on your drums. Keep this in mind that you probably have to tighten them back up after a couple hours. You may want to tune new heads slightly higher than your ideal pitch at first to anticipate this initial stretching.
