Questions & Answers

Do sweeps and scrapes on a tenor drum take more energy than on an actual tenor drum?

Using this practice pad you can get a very good idea of how real tenors sound. In a sense, the "rim" is part of the frame. Correctly sweeping your floors will immediately reveal whether you have done so.

Can you tell me the size of the heads?

As you move from left to right, the diameters of the heads 1 thru 11 A 1/2-inch and a 9-inch In a 1/4 view, an 8" view, and a 10-view Half an inch. You can measure the longer head closest to you at 10 inches Three-quarters of an inch by three inches 3/4" in diameter. Those are at least the metrics we use. We measured the heads only without taking into account the rims.

In order for the laminates to remain in place, are they necessary?

You don't need laminates at all like with the Vic Frost

Is there a stand included with it?

A stand is not included in the package.

Selected User Reviews For Ahead Practice Pad (AHCTPB)

The practice pad is good and solid
5/5

This practice pad was for my son who is in Drumline and needed a practice pad for home. A day does not go by without him using it. Initially, I ordered another brand directly from a manufacturer based on the recommendation of his teacher back in early November but it did not arrive after three months. A representative of the company told me that they are manufactured in small batches and would take up to four more weeks to complete. It has now been five months since I last heard from you! The company took my payment upon order and said they could not issue a refund because the money goes directly to manufacturing. Therefore, rather than wait any longer, I ordered this model from Amazon and it arrived within one My son has already been practicing with it for two months, so that was a fantastic move on my part. The other one will arrive eventually, so he can use that one until the other is delivered. There is a moderate level of noise, not loud, but not quiet, to be expected for such an event.

This is the best! My son loves it! In addition to a tenor practice pad purchased from Xymox percussion, I bought this item as well
5/5

The person I paid ripped me off and never delivered the pad to me. When I received this one, I was so happy. The drum set is set up just like the real thing. It's a great tool for practicing, I'm sure we'll make good use of it. There are no realistic alternatives to this product, but it is a little pricey. If you decide to buy, you won't be disappointed.

This is a sturdy and practical item
5/5

These are two of the items I bought. The one she has had for almost a year is because I was not interested in investing in a set of tenor drums, nor do I have space at home to store them. Her favorite part is that the wheels can be used, as well as the fact that they have actual rims. The Covid System is able to do all of this As a result of closing the schools in 1959, I bought another one of these to donate to the school in order to help another tenor drum player practice. I'm very happy with the one I have now, so when the need arose, I put an order in right away.

There are two types of Tenor pads
4/5

Using this chop pad can build up your tenor. It is more difficult to sweep because of the material. Construction of a high standard. This is a 4 out of 5 score.

I believe this item will be a perfect gift for my son
5/5

There is no such thing. I believe this item will be a perfect gift for my son. Despite being very large and heavy, it is still extremely well constructed and He can practice "rim shots" on metal rims and stay more precise when he drums because metal rims allow him to practice. As well as the rubber heads with their action and sound, he likes the way they feel and I appreciate it!.

The pad is very good
5/5

You can't beat the price for such a good practice pad. Besides feeling and looking like a real drum, it also has weight and sound like a real drum. I spend many hours each day teaching my son how to play it. He loves it a lot. It is a very good product.

Almost impossible to get a quad practice pad like this
5/5

This was purchased for my son, a freshman in high school, who wanted to play quads on drum line but didn't get a chance to learn. A fan of this set up, he has practiced it for a long time For the winter/spring class, stop by and get a spot on the indoor drum line. The money he spent on it was well worth it.
