The best tension rod lube grease out there!
You're going to find a lot of videos and recommendations out there telling you to use Vaseline or white lithium grease for lubing your tension rods. But, coming from a drum-maker you're going to get a different recommendation because we know that CMD Extreme Pressure Lube is the best stuff out there. It doesn't attract dirt and particles and it's very easy to work with. Plus, this tube will last you forever!

Fat Snare Tone - Easy Tuning Tutorial
Переглядів 1,7 тис.21 день тому
Probably the easiest way to get a fat snare tone from your drum! This is not a complex method and simply involves de-tuning two of the lugs on any snare, adding some muffling and you're good to go. I went through the whole process to make it really easy for you to get a fat snare tone from your drum. This of course works best with bigger snare drums and 30 or 42 strand snare wires.

    ton of strands on that wire! that snare looks really nice. thanks for the video boss, I have a tama g maple 13x7 and find it to be a little weird to tune, though I did try this method and was able to get into the ball park of the "sweet spot" for it so thats a plus. my current dilemma is my throw/strainer on my 14x5.5 ludwig universal brass seems to be loosening itself as I play (not the lever itself, but the piece that you turn to tighten the snare wires) . it's odd, brand new. i find the only way to correct it , temporarily, is to undo the throw , tighten the knob back to where it was {like less than a quarter turn usually}, and then put it back on and then it stays where its put for another couple of songs of playtime. any tips on what I can do to adjust/fix it? i did not change the stock wires, and theyre being held with nylon. thanks man!

    • @verticaldrumco
      @verticaldrumco 28 днів тому

      Head to a hardware store and get some threadlock that isn't permanent, usually the blue color. It's less than $5 at Harbor Freight if you have any of those stores where you live. Take the throw off apart carefully, maybe even record it on video so you can put it back together exactly the same. Most of those throws have a main center bolt that you can add the threadlock to and that will help it keep its position without loosening as you play. The other option is to get one of the tuning lock plastic pieces and wedge it in there on the throw main bolt so it doesn't continue to turn as you play. If that doesn't work then find something that fits tight enough to help keep the main bolt in position. And if all else fails Inde makes some killer throws that are fairly universal in sizing, just buy one of theirs and replace the current throw off.

    I believe the term drum tuning is already incorrect. How many drummers actually tune a drum to any note. Having drummed for over 50 years, I've only ever tensioned drums on a kit, by ear, to whatever suits the style of music I'm playing. .If drums were tuned to a particular note, it would not serve the music unless the composer of the music specified tuned percussion. getting the right sound is something you can learn over time, but it's also about rebound from the tension on the heads too. having played Concert tom kits in the '70s, you had to adapt your playing style, as there was little or no rebound caused by the lack of the resonant head. You should also go out front and have someone else hit the drums to get an idea of how they sound, as being in the driver's seat is not the best place to hear what your kit sounds like. An audience will not hear what you hear. And of course the differences between bendy mild steel triple flanged hoops and rigid die cast hoops ,bring their own challenge to tensioning drums. It's all a learning curve and don't expect to become masters of it from the get-go.

      @verticaldrumco Yes its a beautiful snare drum and I'm sure it sound great. The reason for my statement is a good friend of mine purchased a copper wrapped set of Slingerland drums in the early 70s. It was a double bass set and sounded and looked great BUT then they tarnished they tarnished really bad. We live in the midwest in the USA where it get very humid in the summer. He would wipe them down before and after playing but with being handled and getting sweat on they tarnished bad enough (in 6 to 7 months time) Slingerland replaced the whole set but they would not replace with copper. Slingerland replaced a lot of sets and quit making the copper sets altogether. What is the suggested cleaner for your drums? It is a beautiful drum and I really did mean I hope it works out (long term) for your company. Thank you for your time RCW

      @ Good insight. Each of our metal shells including the copper are sprayed with a clear lacquer made for metal so they won’t tarnish or patina over time. The inside could if they were stored in a harsh environment but the outside is good to go. We’ve been selling this style for 4 years now with no complaints.
