Hi Dionne, thanks for the question...the toms are mounted together so cannot be adjusted individually, but as a collective they can be by moving them on the rack assembly...

These original Trixon Speedfies 0/700 are becoming very rare and sought after, and going up in price so I was very delighted to finally add one to the collection..

Man that kit looks great! Nice work.

These kits look very cool, but are they hard to play with those toms set so flat? It seems like it would be tough to get over the top of them.

I been following this project and the paint removal looks great. It's not a painted wrap now, it's simply wrap that got paint on it.

I like and play concert tom racks. Trixon owes you.
