Getting the most out of your Cooperman frame drum
Some comments about the weight of the drums
Essential pillars of drum design
It's difficult to pin a weight on a particular model drum, but we do make an effort to keep our eye on the average weight of the models, and it is most certainly a consideration in our design of drums, as well as a major consideration for many players.
On the Edge about bearing edges?
When initially spec'ing a particular drum, we select a bearing edge design primarily (a) to affect the sound and, in some cases, (b) to improve the ergonomics for varied playing positions.
Basically, we manipulate the bearing edge geometries to change the contact between the head and the shell.
