What drum heads would you recommend for this kit?
http://drums-percussion.musiciansfriend.com/product/Tama-Superstar-SL-Custom-Hyper-Drive-6Piece-Drum-Set?sku=491344
It's a good kit, but i would like some heads that would make it sound great. also, if you have any tips on tuning this particular set, that would also really be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
ok let me start by saying there is no correct answer for either of your questions. both the heads and tuning are purely personal preferrence. but i can, however, give you some suggestions.
as for heads, i use remo pinstripes. its a good head. its got a ring around the outside to make it decay slightly faster and the single ply makes it a great head for use on really nice drumsets where you want to accentuate the natural tone of the drum. again, its just personal preference.
as for tuning, well the general idea of tuning will be the same regardless of your drumset. so i cant give you any pointers specific to your set. but mess around with it. keep a tuning key in your pocket and just experiment by changing the tension of both batter and resonant heads.
hope this helps some!
