Do you offer Kevlar/White Max/Cyber Max/Black Max series heads in other sizes? 15", 16", or 17" diameters?
Kevlar/Max-Series are available in 12" (not all models),13-14" diameters, along with 14" metric for Premier models, and can not be custom made in other diameters. The most common marching snare-drum sizes on the market are 13" and 14" and larger diameter marching snare drum applications do not require high-tension drumheads.
To tune a tenor drum set, start with the lowest drum and aim for a minor 7th chord, beginning on E4 for a set with 10", 12", 13", and 14" drums. Tune the 14" to E4, 13" to G5, 12" to B5, and 10" to D5. Adjustments may be needed depending on the number of players and the music style. Always start tuning from the lowest drum.
What's the difference between batter and resonant drumheads, and how do I choose the right one for my drum?
Batter drumheads are the ones you strike and are available in different thicknesses and features to match your desired sound and playing style. Resonant drumheads, found on the bottom of the drum, enhance tone and sustain, with thinner versions used for greater sensitivity, especially on snare drums. Choosing the right drumhead depends on the drum type and the sound you want to achieve.
