... why that sole 20” Pearl Bassdrum, you ask ? Well - playing got more and more into small clubs and/or houses ! The big stages were now for the youngbies with their 7string bullshit, so we stepped down one level. For this purpose and somehow really more ”kick!” WITHOUT  less volume I bought this one for small cash (that´s why I didn´t care for brands, etc.). And guess what ?!? - it really kicks and if I´ll go on playing drums one day again it may become my favourite !!! ... never ever believe those lamers telling you the deeper the shell the better and louder the sound - it´s simply not true !!! The deeper the shell the more overtones you get (with toms esp.) and the smaller the bassdrum in diameter the better anyone recognizes it in a room plus it really “kicks ass !” ... ;o)
