I am planning on putting on new drum heads and saving the original TAMA Superstar heads from the 1970's.

When I last played seriously (70's & 80's) on a set of mid-60's Ludwig white pearl finish with 5" Supersentative snare, I recall that I used Remo Black Dot heads that I really liked. They muted just right to give a bouncy, thuddy sound; and the snare did not ring too much. This was with the internal mufflers barely touching so they did not rattle.

For the TAMA's so far I plan to do the same thing, barely using the drum internal mufflers.

Do these heads perform the same as the 70's & 80's version did?

Then what clear heads for the 22" bass drum?

Any other suggestions for using current technology heads, but with clear bottom heads and clear bass drum heads? That is because the internal wood grain looks nice, and so that you can see the bass drum work going on.

Thank you,

Craig
