Characteristics of Drum Hoops
When choosing a new drum the hoops really are a major factor
to take into account and each hoop will work much differently with various
shell materials and thicknesses. When customers visit the Tee Drums showroom/studio,
we take time out to go through various shell thicknesses and materials and then
demonstrate the difference In sound that the hoops will make. Tee Drums shells
are either vertical grain or half and half vertical/horizontal construction
which have slightly different characteristics to the most common and what seems
to be the industry standard snare shell, a Maple 8-10 ply, difference being
that our full vertical or half & half vertical/horizontal will be a little
dryer than a full horizontal grain which will resonate much more. |

Tee Drums Turbo BD System We have developed a system which delivers energy to the reso head faster than usual (which is ideal on bass drums over 22"). Our internal tube runs through the centre from batter to reso head. On striking the Batter head, the majority of the energy will be forced through the central tube focusing on the centre of the Reso head, on a spectrum anylizer we found that this also adds more bottom end to the bass drum. Our Turbo BD System can be added to most Bass Drums.

LOS CABOS Drum Sticks Have you tried Los Cabos Drum Sticks??? I have been using them since 2008 and it is the only drum stick that we stock in our showroom. Available in White Hickory, Red Hickory and Maple (red Hickory being the hardest, Maple the softest) I tend to use Maple more than Hickory. Stick sizes are... 2B, 3A, 5A, 5B, 7A and variations of sizes, I like to use a Jazz stick which is a little thinner than the 5A and a .25" longer. Prices for all sizes include UK postage 1 Pair £8. |
