Here is the promised follow up video from the first part of my drum maintenance series.
I play both the Pearl Steve Ferrone drum and the Ludwig Black Beauty drum with the full kit. I also compare an early 1960's Ludwig COB Supraphonic to the Black Beauty. You will hear the Black Beauty with calf heads top and bottom.
The other equipment I am using for this video consists of:
Doc Sweeney Stave Drums in African Olive wood 20"x 16" Bass Drum Toms: 10"x 8", 12"x 8", 14"x 14 floor tom.
Cymbals are: Sabian Jack DeJohnette 20" Ride Wuhan 20" Lion Cymbal Paiste Traditional 16" and 17" thin crashes Sabian HH 13" Regular Hi-Hats Sabian 12" AA Mini Hats .
Heads on toms are Remo Pinstripes on toms Bass drum is an Aquarian Power stroke 1 head.
Microphones are a AKG C24 stereo overhead and an Shure Beta 52 on the Bass drum.

Steve Ferrone snare is the best

Snares are tuned nicely

All the snares sound great! Since you use the Skyntone and calf heads for a darker sound, have you used the Fiberskyn Diplomat? Of course it does have two plys with the fiber top layer but in the Diplomat thickness it is nearly equivalent to an Ambassador in thickness and definitely produces a darker tone. I use that head on a COB Dynasonic (which I know you don’t care for) and also on an Acrolite getting what I consider a darker tone while tuned pretty high.

Hi Fred I have tried that head but I don't like the feel of a 2 ply head on a snare drum. I like them fine on toms (as in Pinstripes) but the response of a 2 ply feels like it fights back slightly with the tighter head of a snare. I am a big fan of coated or hazy Renaissance Diplomat heads for my concert snares when I don't use calf on them. I am not sure of the skyntone construction but that head feels really good to me, very close to calf.

@@rickdior Thanks for your reply. Interestingly enough, I haven't used the Renaissance Diplomat on a snare but do use them on toms to get a warm open tone. So many options....too few gigs.

Hey Rick. Do you think that black beauty 417bt good for jazz?

Hi Yes it is I will be putting up a video tomorrow on Jazz Snare Drums and the Black Beauty is one of the ones I demonstrate.

Sounds amazing!! Quick question- when did you buy your C24? Those are so expensive now it’s crazy!! How much did you pay for it when you bought it if you don’t mind me asking?

@rickdior 3 года назад

I have had that mic for around 25 years now. It came out of an opera house in Austria. I can't remember what I paid for it but it was a fraction of what they go for now which is ridiculous.

@@rickdior wow that’s awesome. They’re untouchable in price now… it’s crazy. That was a fantastic buy for you! What are you using for mic pres?

@rickdior 3 года назад

Great River, Millennia Media and Grace pres. The C 24 is going through a Grace.
