16" Low tom - depth advice?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #11302 of 11345 |

Hello There!

Hope everyone is doing well, and I wish everyone a happy and healthy 2009.

I currently have a 5 piece DW kit with the following dimensions:

(Depth x Diam)
9" x 10"
10" x 12"
12" X 14"
18" X 22" bass drum

... when I play out, I haven't used the 10" small tom in quite awhile. I'm
looking to add a 16" low tom (to bring the thunder!) when we play places that
have the room for it. My question is around the depth, and looking for some
opinions. Should I go with a (depth x diam) of 14" x 16" to keep with the
general make up of the rest of the kit, or would 16 x 16 be a better option?
This is just cover band stuff - dance, funk, rock - and my 14" tom has a nice
low tone ... this is more because I'm just craving a wicked low end drum for
something new to play with. :)

Any opinions welcome!

Thanks,

Brett

I think my DW kit has a 16" floor tom with a depth of 14".  If your kit is anything like mine, the high toms (mine are 12" and 13") have pretty decent low-end...
