[@zimorog]

i'm just watching this because this guy has a nice charisma. If anyone else did this type of vid i would pass. Cheers Bonzoleum!

[@jabbingjabberwocky5243]

Zimorog Band... agreed bro Terry is the show!!! But still I loves me my J H BONHAM...long LIVE BONZOLEUM!!!!🤘😎🤘

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you ZB!

[@colindebaggis1262]

I was the one who suggested the keith moon sticks! I have a pair as well and I love em! glad you saw my comment!

[@bonzoleum]

Who loves ya, baby!!

[@toddgraham6006]

I aligned with the REMO logo with the LUDWIG badge too!

[@rayh3884]

Should have knocked on your drumsticks...they are wood...lol....you rule Terry

[@rayh3884]

What do you think about a black dot snare head

[@bonzoleum]

I actually like them as a snare head!

[@61flh81]

What about that bass drum hoop???🤔

[@thetoastedplum]

Great content as always. Never fail to entertain. Keep up the good work

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you, TP!

[@cdawg2035]

Vic Firth makes some great sticks indeed! My go to stick for the heavy stuff is VF Hickory 3A. A bit long at 16 1/8 but seems to have a nice balance...

[@sgtpepper1138]

Ludwig is now making the silver dot again.....now made by Remo.

[@XCenturionX]

13:58, Terry is hilarious...

[@davetrudel81]

I play a Sonor kit with an 18" floor tom , I usually get dusty boxes when I buy that size head!!! 18" floor toms rule! P.S. You're the man Terry!!!!

[@millerinoman88]

Amazing what a fresh head can do. drums sound Great all around!

[@nokoolaid]

Rob Brown has a decent video on tuning. I used to tune mine to specific notes, but I had more toms and tuning it to 4ths made a very melodic sound.

[@DeanMk1]

...and thus, Bonzoleum records the passing of the "pie head" era of Remo drumheads (the "ship's wheel: used to be referred to as a "pie" on the forums back when they first came out, thus we used to call them "pie heads").

[@PenfoldSmith]

Here in the mother country (England) we always tap our heads when we need to touch wood...lol...Great video again.

[@Cpayne30]

3:55 - That always happens to me. I keep thinking "Where can I sit this without making the lugs fall out" lol

[@bonzoleum]

I saw we get a standard 3 gallon bucket (heavy gauge), and call it the HEAD PARKER and rake in the cash!

[@Cpayne30]

bonzoleum - I approve of that.

[@MrHipBop]

Ahh, was wondering if you had a gasket under that silver dot head!! Killer sound!!! You're really makin' me wish i had an acrylic kit!

[@bonzoleum]

You MUST buy one!

[@Juju-zd5ix]

Now that you have the Moon sticks, you should cover more of his work lol.

[@bonzoleum]

I'd love too-thanks for the comment, J!

[@nycrl5228]

The set sound's great Terry

[@Hawiianlion67]

I looovvveee these fucking things, it always makes me think of just a big swampy sound where you can just kill it on those triplets.

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you BDE!!!

[@sofakinggood5829]

Terry, have you thought about doing another drum clinic? Either lecture style or hands on would be great. I'm in Northern Virginia. Jim

[@bonzoleum]

I'd love to do that. Thanks for the kind words, sir!

[@ralphbenites1819]

Yea.I all ways put the remo logo straight on the badge.it looks professional

[@Mario_DiSanto]

The Keith Moon sticks are on clearance right now at Guitar center! Just got my self two pairs.

[@bonzoleum]

Yes-I got them there too!

[@Thorum13]

Great video!

[@drummerboy5083]

Im the guy u just messengered about the ludwig standard

[@LBird44]

loveeeee this! keep the vids come'n, great stuff! :)

[@bonzoleum]

Thank you, LB44!!

[@Assimilator702]

The pre “ship wheel” heads were from the 90’s. You would know if you had one of those since the Remo logo was smaller and the box looked different. The box you have is a newer box from the era right after the “ship wheel” heads. The new logo was introduced 2013/2014. Just watch some NAMM videos for the logo change.

[@keithmounts1305]

How about a big backdrop image of Bonham's gong with all your inventory surrounding it ?

[@mr.anderson70]

Just the other day I was thinking... I ought to invite Terry down to NC and go check out the Ludwig factory. (Then, I thought hmmm). The Gretsch factory is only 3 hours away from Monroe and the ocean is just a skip away from there. The ocean has seagulls which could fly overhead and add passing ambiance to an outdoor, bongo rendition of Immigrant Song.

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks Joe! I din't realize Gretsch was down there too...

[@mr.anderson70]

Yeah, I've wanted go visit both of them. Pretty cool to see both.

[@tmaddrummer]

I wanna take you higher.......

[@dfadsfadsful]

Wow, you made putting on a drum head exciting! Nice video! Just wondering if you would have only have one floor Tom would you rather have an 18 or 16? I noticed that whenever somebody has a 14 rack with a 26 kick they would rather choose the 16 most of the time? I really like 18 inch toms and if you like the interval between the 14th and the 18th is a good spread where the high tom is spread enough to differentiate from the floor tom (the high is high and low is low). What do you think? Thanks for your time and response! -Ace

[@bonzoleum]

Hi Ace-I do actually prefer the 18”!

[@jessicagreene1773]

I want to hear Boogie Nights!

[@wm.shultzie2275]

Good job man, makes me laugh.

[@UofMicers]

Woot! #TerryRocks

[@benjamingebhart]

I was just wondering what you feel is the best bottom head for an 18" vistalite floor tom?

[@dylanchacon3286]

I feel as you sitting higher makes your foot even closer to the bonham style timing.

[@maprow]

Yeah, I've always felt like when I sit higher I get more speed and when I sit lower I get more power.

[@rayh3884]

Can you do another vid playing custard pie....I always have problems with the hi hat part... thanks terry

[@STAMPER-DESIGN]

Nice.

[@keithmounts1305]

Interesting comment about loosing and gaining bass drum pedal power.like to hear More on that

[@bonzoleum]

Higher you rely less on the calf muscle (more endurance), but I was too lazy to adjust my spring setting and shaft length to get better control in the higher position. I like your avatar Keith!

[@keithmounts1305]

bonzoleum I sit on the highest position setting on my Roc-n-soc I'm 6'3" and have always preferred to sit up higher I never noticed calf muscle strain, it's always that muscle that runs along your shin on the right side of your shin that burns like a mug after about 30 seconds of immigrant song. Today I am releasing my left kick drum to eBay I'm saying goodbye to 2kick drums & saying hello to more creativity and ability on 1 foot. I've been playing double bass for about 20 years or so and I feel like it's made me lazy and less creative. Anyways thank you for your reply sir keep on rockin, and I'll keep a'watchin'.

[@bobc.5698]

How do we get some of your snare twine? I should have had you throw some in with the t-shirt for a little extra.

[@bonzoleum]

I'll send you some shoot me an email at the bonzoleum gmail addy.

[@allanvanko4612]

Terry, is there a reason you don't use 2 floor toms? Love the sound of this Vistalites by the way.

[@bonzoleum]

I typically only use a one rack/one floor setup. When I bought these ambers last month, it only came with the 18 so I need to find a 16. Thanks AV!

[@keithmounts1305]

Maybe after they reproduce the 6-lug 14" tom, you can help usher in the advertisement campaign!!!! At the factory!!!! With a clinic!!!!! Just give me a ticket.

[@264rockstar]

Haha.. Whats wood? And your holding a pair of wooden sticks. Oh and are the kick drum hoops wood? You make me laugh.

[@gregmyers3389]

After watching and laughing along for over five years I finally SUBSCRIBED.....and I bought your cd two years ago, so....when the hell are ya gonna except my fb request????!! lmao! Rock on Bro!

[@bonzoleum]

I didn't accept it yet? I'm a skull.

[@sticksbass]

whats wrong w the silver dot?

[@boogieman5037]

Finger tight, Can i use that as a song name? lol. Love your vids. Funk Jams?

[@warcarfter567]

Can't buy the dots at any local shops, always have to buy online...really lame. Good video though!

[@bonzoleum]

Yes-never at shops...There are so many head choices now it's impossible for local shops to stock nothing but the most common..

[@AlexSlavenDrums]

how come you don't play both floor toms usually? Is it habbit or a lack of space

[@bonzoleum]

I'm going to probably score a 16x16 Neusonic and cut it down a smidge..

[@keithmounts1305]

Y not have a clinic at the ludwig factory?!?!?!!! Make it happen, babe. 😉

[@bonzoleum]

That'd be sweet!

[@jaylotz5901]

check out this guy on youtube kenny sharretts hes a professional drum tech guy and he has a bunch of videos on drum tuning stuff and changing heads all other stuff etc etc

[@MDiegors]

How did you tune the reso head? Same tech as upper head?

[@bonzoleum]

Yes.

[@cjansenATL]

Hey, Terry. FT sounds great. Did you ever talk about Bonham sticks? He used Ludwig 2b, right?

[@thomashope373]

atl_drum He used 2A Ludwig. Some people say they are bigger than 2B but i have no idea since it is the exact opposite for 5As and 5Bs

[@cjansenATL]

Thomas Hope I didn't even know 2a existed!

[@jabbingjabberwocky5243]

Terry actually had a pair of exact BONHAM replicas made about 20 pair I was lucky enough to get two of them and yes there 2A's Ludwig I do believe that they are thicker but the shafts down at the tip are a lot skinnier hope this helps

[@bonzoleum]

As the guys said, Bonham used Ludwig 2A (and 2B reportedly-the 2B were slightly different-a little longer too). Also Promuco and some others I'm sure. In all pics I've seen his sticks alwys appear to be heavier gauge (like a common 5B of most manufacturers).

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks Nate!

[@bbc_nanm]

Whats use Cymbals??

[@MaxwellVideos]

Premier vs Ludwig, whats your opinion?

[@bonzoleum]

I love 'em both! The current Ludwig CLASSIC MAPLEs are outstdning!

[@TheZguitarboy67]

oooh what cymbal is that to the right?

[@bonzoleum]

The ever-so-delectable 20" A Zildjian SYMPHONIC FRECH. I was just on the phone with a Zildjian rep and told him the French is a magical cymbal. If I had both a couple 22"s and 24"s (23"s too), I'd be set!

[@bobc.5698]

Do a tutorial of what you are doing at 11:27. That was teets.

[@bonzoleum]

I'll check that out!

[@paulmcewan5048]

Terry mate, you are wrong, Vater are superior to Vic Firth, they last a lot longer. Be a Vater endorsee. Good luck to you lovin' yer channel

[@tonymann848]

Good riddance to the ship wheel !

[@tonymann848]

You look a little off balance. Maybe you are better sitting lower. Drums sound great

[@bonzoleum]

Thanks Tony-looking to find my sweet spot again...

[@drummerboy5083]

I just sent u a message
