I put the washers on my 1964 Slingerland Artist model snare drum and it really helped reducing an odd overtone series in the drum. The original washers were completely rusted and worn out. These would really help any pre-1970s drum and especially any drum that has nickel plated brass hardware like...
"The RFM kit is tough to beat," says K Bo. "The quality and workmanship is clearly top shelf and the sound capabilities are vast," he continued. K Bo also talked about the aesthetics of his RFM kit: "I have to say that it is rare that someone does not comment on the appearance of my kit and that is...
Since my RFM drums arrived I have played them in a number of different situations, and they have delighted me on each occasion. I need drums that deliver great sound at all dynamic levels and these drums do so. I can sincerely say tnat tney are the finest instruments I have ever played. The set...
This kit is perfect for me. Its big and open. The kick has a lot of punch. and the toms sounded deep. I can feel the old school rock vibe,but it can fit for modern music.
Im using the 14x6,5 mahogany snare. I love it. Its sounded big, deep but has a lot of crack. I usually use a medium low tuning.
The heart of my kit is this 6.5x14 Neo Vintage NV60-M1 snare in mahogany satin. It delivers everything I love about classic Gretsch snares, but with its lighter solid brass hardware and unique design it has a very musical transparency coupled with tone for days. I’m using the plated vintage snare...
The kit has arrived and I am knocked out. They open up with the lightest touch and it makes me want to play softer. They are super light in weight but deliver the best of the tone of the great vintage drums - but brought up to date. The attention to detail is amazing. Fit and finish are perfect;...
The warmth and aesthetic of the Yaiba II Bop Kit are an aural and visual wonder! I'm in love with these drums for their dexterity and the attention to detail they were crafted with. They perform equally well in dead, low, medium, high, and cranked tunings! Plus the Yaiba Gray Sparkle... say no...

My RFM drums are the warmest, most musical drums I've owned, in nearly 50 years of playing. I like to tune my drums high, and the RFM don't lose any of their tone, even at the highest tunings. And the 15" bass drum is about my favorite ever - incredible tone and articulation, and it's easy to haul...
Bolt Tight washers keep drums in tune and add that velvety tone to the sound.
When I first tried Canopus Speed Star ball bearing with my Yamaha Flying Dragon, I was really impressed! I mean, if you feel an instant improvement in the instrument you've been happily using for the last 15 years, isn't it something?!
Vintage Snare Wire adds crispness, sensitivity, articulation and depth to your snare sound. Truly, a sophisticated wire for knowledgeable players!
The average cymbal stand weighs around 13 lbs, and the Canopus Hybrid weighs only 8 lbs (closer to 7). This hardware is very smart, and very sharp looking. The drum throne is also very classy. Almost feels like an office chair, more than the typical vinyl throne.
If you need a snare tone that allows you to communicate the subtlety of every ghost note and the huge fat back of every back beat, then you best buy yourself a Canopus Back Beat Snare Wire 30 or 42 for your favorite snare drum!

Canopus Vintage snare wires will enhance the sound of any snare drum enormously - adding increased depth, sensitivity and dynamic range. I use them on all of my snare drums and cannot recommend them enough.
