Remo Adjustable Bass Drum Dampener
Designed in conjunction with Dave Weckl, this handy little device from Remo gives drummers the ability to adjust the tone and feel on any bass drum, no matter what its size or tuning range. The dampener simply clamps to the drum’s hoop and can be adjusted around its circumference without interfering with the pedal and beater. And it works equally well on either the batter or resonant head. $59.95 online. remo.com | Check the price on Reverb!
