Tama 18" Club Jam Pancake Bass -HBK

It makes sense that this kick drum best suits low volume performances and small spaces, since the club jam series aims exactly to that kind of situation.
I personally changed the stock heads with a remo powerstroke 3 coated and a remo ambassador ebony with a hole and put a pillow in the drum. I got a pretty dead but direct sound.
To make a clear reference, I believe this drum is perfect if you want to achieve a kick drum sound similar to the one of nate smith with the fearless flyers.
I tried to tune it with the stock heads in a more jazzy type of tuning, but the 4” depth and the 18” diameter made it sound a little bit like a toy.
Very light, perfect drum for portability. The quality seems kinda nice, it justifies the price of the drum. One thing to keep in mind is that it slides a lot when you play it, so you may wanna prevent it by using cymbal’s or tom’s stands to block the kick drum legs.
