Well ever since I have been playing drums I have been useing a old ludwig concert toms.  Tuning was a simple one head and you couldn't get a great sound out of it.  Now I bought some lugs and turned my concert toms into reg toms.  

So for bottom heads are one ply better?  I am looking for a nice deep warm tone from the toms.  Re the bottom heads suppose to be tuned tighter than the tops..


I have done a quick search on the net and couldn't find anything if anyone has a site that would be great..

Thanks in advance

Thank you very much!  This info will be everything I need..  Im excited about all the possibilites now that I can tune my drums to get a diffrent sound!!

Thank you!

It's funny you mention the laws of physics..  I am pursuing my Physics major right now..  ONLY 1 year left.  Anyway I have always wanted to sit down and actually figure out what sizes and depths actually sonically match.  I talked with Kevin from Bearing Edge Drums and saw his work area.  He is a physics major and claims he has spent many hours on this and puts this into his drum making..  There are many classes here at school on The physics of music and even a concentration in Drums!  Im just so packed with Classes needed to Graduate that I havn't taken the time to take them.

Thanks again for the info I lookforward to putting everything to use ..

The bottom bearing edges are nice it looks as if they were cut but then just not given bottom hardware.

I still havn't taken a cource in music physics yet.  I want to just havn't found time.  Right now im trying to get the classes I need out of the way so I can graduate next semester.
