Keys, bass, ukes, dulcimer, vibes, tympani etc.

Yepper, that's the one! I've found them over the years at flea markets etc. Built light, just heavy enough and no more. I buy these whether I need them or not because there's always a bud needing one.

I have a 20" Staccato BD in this design. It skews low in pitch but otherwise sounds like most other single-headed BDs.

No fooling - velcro!

I think a lot of people thought the ebay blow-out prices were the regular prices. Some thought they were incredible for $100-$150, others assumed they were just cheap drums. (I guess I'm assuming a lot here about what others thought, probably too much.) In reality, Ming were (and Mair are)...

Do you think these will work? One of them is missing the two swivel nuts and spring.

Yes, Pearl did make Factory fiberglass snare drums. Also worth mentioning, I think some people got the wrong idea about these drums due to the blowout pricing. Some thought they were just cheap drums, others thought that they were miracles of economy at that price. Neither was the case.

Yer all nuts - Fiesta Pearl!

I have one from the MusicYo era - don't know if it's the same or desirable - just came on the drum. The adjustment knob is bent, so I swapped it out. LMK if you want it.

Yamaha 8000 with a SlingerYo snare, plus the usual etc.

I think a lot of the things we assume to be true about brand reputation and naming reflect a fading boomer mentality. It's been 40+ years since most drum brands started stratifying their lines.

Covering Daring Dan Hutton's 1966 composition. Last month TTO did Tim Hardin's Hang On To a Dream , which was the A-side of a 1966 Hutton single on MGM. Here is its B-side. A friendly go, no rights implied. Recorded 1/23 in Athens, GA. Big Blaemire set w/ Ludwig LM306, P-Bass, ukes, lap steel...

Jeez... He does have a point - but this discussion is goofy. TRY it and learn for yourself. Your preference is all that matters here.

Measure it with your 20" cymbal!

I have this bass too. Great value, sounds like the real thing when you record it.

Thanks for listening, Charles. I use a Tascam DP32, which has 8 channels for tracking plus 12 stereo tracks to mix onto. I use the same method we did in analog days, no plug-ins or PC anything. This was a quick and dirty one knocked up in 2 days using my usual mix of ukuleles, keyboards and...

She's mint bud!
