What do YOU suggest?

Hola, I'm currently playing on my Gretsch Catalina Club Mod, which I looove, and was wondering what you would suggest for tom heads? I'd love to have a "full" sound, if that makes any sense. In particular, I love Adrian Young's tom tone and the drummer for The Sounds has a great tom sound too. I'm using the Evans heads that came with the kit, they're ok, but not really my cup of tea. Any suggestions are welcome! Thanks Very Happy

You can check out my current drum sound at my band's MySpace page (shameless promotion, I know I know Laughing

)

They're G1s right? Try G2s.

I'm pretty fond of Aquarian Response 2 heads.

Evas G2 Clears are for the fullest sound and optimum resonance! You can get some serious noise out of your drums that show everyone who's boss!

I used g2's on my set cause I wanted a full, fat, resonant hit. The g2's didn't resonate nearly as much as remo emperors did and the emperors sounded a ton better too.

I suggest Remo Emperors.

I'm gonna have to try them on my toms. I know Bonham used them...and Weckl.
I wander if they're like Pinstripes...some dead and some not?
