Hi Guys:
Have a question, hope someone can help out:
I have acquired a Sonor 21 inch bass drum from 1959. It of course uses "Pre -International" heads, which are a giant hassle to obtain these days.
However, Tympani heads are readily available and come in 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, inch sizes and more.
Is there any reason I couldnt use a Tympani head on the drum?
I was reading online that you need to go one inch larger, that is, if the drum is 21 inches (mine) , you use a 22 inch Tympani head.
Has anyone here ever tried this, and did the head s fit?
Many thanks for any help!!!!
