phs_pit blank Registered: 08/09/03 Loc: Texas	I have seen some with seven but the difference between the smallest heads are very little.. but at my school we have 5, but with professionals, sometimes they have 6. _________________________ 2 Year drumline Member Pit 02'-03' 03' Pit section leader

andrewroush Registered: 05/12/03 Loc: Bastrop, TX	We have 5. Our tenor players want 6 but...too bad for them. Never seen 7 before, but that'd would make for some really sweet parts. _________________________ BHS Pit 01-03 BHS Bass Line 03-05 Teal Sound Pit 04

MOGDrummer Registered: 03/31/03 Loc: APSU. Clarksville, TN	we use 6. i wanna use 5 because the sound difference isnt really crucial. i've never seen seven before, but i would like to know what the purpose would be behind one more drum. _________________________ Music City Mystique snareline '07 Southwind Snareline '07 www.myspace.com/godsdrumminfool

drumholio Registered: 09/05/00 Loc: Tullahoma, TN	i have never seen seven, heard of seven, or can even figure out how they stick seven in there, and finally what the purpose is? most DCI lines use 6...some still use 5....no one in DCI uses 4 anymore. _________________________ <-----Ryan Patrick Smith Proud Member of Future Drummers of America

Big_John Registered: 02/19/03 Loc: Kentucky	Our school has 5, and I really don't see a need for six, unless its like BDs rig this year, 6,8,10,11,12,13,14 (if thats wrong correct me). Different size shots make sense, same don't. _________________________ Big John Bullitt Central HS '99-03: Pit, Bass, Snare/SL Univ. of Kentucky '03-04: Cymbals, Bass Nine Southwind '04: Lead Vibes Since 2005: I've been pursuing a career as a conductor and an operatic baritone.

WWHStenor04 Registered: 06/17/03 Loc: Beckley,WV	Our school uses 5, i tried to get the sixth one on, but i waasn't very successful, so i guess i will be carrying quints once again. I haven't seen 7 yet, but i think it's stupid unless you can have 7 with a bd setup! _________________________ 8th grade-4th bass for Woodrow Wilson High School (one parade only) 9th-quad toms 10th- 2nd bass W.W.H.S. 11th-tenors WWHS 12TH-TENORS-CAPTAIN
