How To Change and Tune Drum Heads - easy step by step guide from a Drum Teacher

Описание: This video is a follow along step be step tutorial on changing and tuning drum heads.

Changing drum heads and tuning drums can be tricky, so here I aim to show you that it can be a simple process.

We will use the toms from my Tama Superstar Classic kit. We will cover removing the old head, installing the new head, and tuning it up.

I will do it with 2 drums, so you can follow along with me and learn the process I use.

Heads used will be Remo Coated Ambassadors on the batter side, over Remo Clear Ambassadors on the resonant side.

Also included is a sound sample of the kit.
