Ultimate Snare Batter Tape Hack | Season Two, Episode 43

Most of us have probably seen gaff tape on a drumhead at some point or another (we did an entire episode not long ago on some cool gaff tape hacks-    • Gaffer’s Tape Drum Hacks | Season Two...  ) and many of us have probably used it ourselves. This week we’re featuring an awesome hack brought to light by Questlove a while back in several interviews in which he describes using tape between the bearing edge of the drum and the drumhead itself. The results? Incredible.
