..this thing.
North, Migirian, Staccato, Arbiter, Peavey, Trixon, Leedy & Ludwig oddball tuning mechanisms...all strange and all a big flop. Drummers are generally conservative and like drums that look "normal." It's no wonder these oddballs never took off.
I gigged my Flat Jacks with a Rock band in the mid 1960s.

I remember these things, Mark. They were completely dumb looking. As I said, drummers, regardless of their age, want conventional looking drums for the most part. Anything too out there will fail. I've seen it happen over and over.
