Do you use the same head on different drums?

Basement Rocker · Mar 22, 2023

I like to experiment with different heads. Since tinkering with my kit is as much fun as playing. At this point I did incorporate an Evans hydraulic head on one 16" floor tom and like it. Wasn't sure I would. EC2S on my other 16" and 13".. Ambassador on the snare, and G1 on the 8 and 10". We'll see how long I keep this arrangement.
Thank you

I appreciate all the responses.

And to the six of you who voted for "Dude, you ask some weird questions" I say Thank You, but you may not want to encourage me

I would have liked to see "Not simultaneously" as an option, so I didn't vote.

Excellent point. Added. Just for you.

Do you use the same head on different drums?

Do you try the same exact head on different drums looking for the best match?

No way! Once on a drum, head and drum are married.

Sure, I like hearing how a head sounds on different drums.

I'm too OCD, once that head is seated it can never seat properly on a different drum.

I like to experiment, the drum doesn't care if it is wearing a new head or one previously used.

Dude, you ask some weird questions.

Not simultaneously. I live in one space/time continuum. (for @ThomasL)
