Changing Heads On A Rope Tension Bass Drum

[@apsylogfr]

Bill, you did put words and professionalism on my own little experience in setting up a tension drum. This tutorial is precious. Respects from France.

Thanks for the tutorial Bill! Do you also make rope tension drums with a double set of leather tensioning ears(like on some Reamer drums) with one set for each head?

Glad it was helpful! Yeah, sometimes I'll lace up a bass drum with two sets of ears, but it doesn't really provide that much independent tuning capability; it's still a single tension drum. It definitely looks cool though!

@@CalderwoodPercussion Ah, I see. Also in terms of concert field drums, do you prefer/recommend a rod or a rope-tension drum? Thanks again!

I googled before reassembling a 1905ish rope 28” -how many people are googling that!? Thanks for tips
