Rob brown, on his drum channel on Youtube has demos of them. and just a week ago put them down on his top list of things he always thows in his gig bag. Fastest way to get several types of a fat sounding snare without having to detune your drum. I made a homemade version that works ok but BFSDH has several styles to choose from to get the sound you want.

My wife has been making these for me out of old worn out snare heads for the last 40 years or so. They work great when you have a snare that rings too much for the occasion.

I am interested in the BHDH products with the tambourine jingles built in. Hope Ted Brown has them when we go up Saturday to pick up my horn.

I have been making my own for a decade or so too,,, actually got the word on doing it from a thread on here from member "Bermuda".

Cheers

I ALWAYS use one of these with my Ludwig Coliseum snare to deaden the ringing. I should just put an Aquarian Studio X head on it. They are my new ( last 5 years ) favorite head.

Thanks for the input everyone! I am now a believer in these things! Yesterday I bought the original type from a nearby music store. The techie swore by it. I didn't need it for my Supra (no issues) or for my 12 X 15 Ludwig marcher (again, no issues). When I placed it on the head of my old WFL wooden parade drum, the difference was amazing! These old marchers had no internal dampers and this BFSDH helped immensely! I'm even thinking of using this drum for certain songs we may record! Again, thanks very much, guys!
