I haven't seen them in years but does anyone recall the little aluminum or metal bits that allowed you to remove the resonator heads and keep the bottom hoops and tension rods on?
I know you can cut the resonators close to the edge to keep the rims on. But does anyone still make these?
Before I get all the flack about crappy tone, my intention is to make a gigable nesting set, 12" 16" 22" and 12" snare. One kick drum case and one duffle bag for hardware. This set is a lowly pacific set I'm not worried about beating up.
Any other ideas are welcome.
