    Thanks for that - the Yamaha guy thought explaining what metals the hardware is made from rather than the actual setting up of components would be more useful. 🙄

    Awesome video! I might get a Yamaha Stage Custom drum set and drum hardware package in the future for live performances when I go on tour with my band The Sky’s A Limit. For the toms, I might use Remo Emperor Coated or Evans UV2’s, for the bass drum, maybe a Remo Powerstroke 3 or an Aquarian Response 2. For the matching snare drum, maybe I will use an Evans Heavyweight Dry. This is gonna be great for styles like metal, hard rock, jazz and R&B.

  • @davidmcaninch4714

    Wrong. The way you set up a kit is this: angle the bass drum to the right a bit, put your toms in front of the snare drum, and put your ride cymbal over the bass drum. This is the way to ergonomically set up your kit, and it’s the best way to do it.

    My question is to confirm if my Teacher is conducting the classes at the right pace or is he going slow intentionally. So, it's been 4 months that i have taken the classes (1 class per week) and am still on the Snare Drum only, currently am being thought lessons from a book called "Alfreds snare drum" , is it normal to still be thought only snare drum after 4 months?

    • @drumambition
      @drumambition ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there. You will find that every teacher has their own approach. Some start with snare drum, some with rudiments - and some (like me) get you started on the drum set first. There is no right or wrong. With that said, if you really want to play drum set, I would mention it to your teacher. Most good teachers will compromise. I hope this helps!

    I would like to caution new bees 🐝. Be careful finger tightening the lug bolts by turning the bolt holding the threads with your fingers. The edges of them are sometimes pretty sharp and can slice your fingers. Like little paper cuts. If your hands and fingers are pretty hardened or calloused you may not experience any difficulties. But just be aware how tight you’re grasping them so you don’t cut yourself. 😇😇😇😍
