Sound Notes (plain-English)

• Bass drums (22×14, x2): fast, punchy attack with musical low end; takes standard rock and modern heads well

• Rack toms (13×9, 14×10): articulate mids; tune low for thud or higher for classic snap

• Floors (16×16, 18×16): big, round floor tones; excellent for wide-open, mic-friendly sustain

Fit & Setup Tips

• Use a matched pair of pedals (or a double pedal across both) to explore feel and balance.

• Coated or clear heads both work—clear for modern punch, coated for classic warmth.

• Position the 14×10 over the left kick for a period-correct look and ergonomic reach.
