Saran Wrap is multi-purposeful

[Brufordwannabe]

Just as a suggestion to all of you who would like to keep your V kits dust free.. Since I purchased my set last year I've been using this new Saran Wrap that has a rubberband attached to the outer perimeter to keep dust off my set. It pops on nicely, almost as if it were made for thie V drums. Hey when you spend 3 thousand dollars on something, you want to baby it right? There are three sizes to the Saran Wrap...get the largest size. Also use a wash cloth or something to cover your TD-8 module when your not playing your set. The less dust, the longer the life span..

I've been doing this for some time now. I think that's why my sound is so crisp.

Yeah, right, me spend time keeping my drums clean. Who are we foolin? I haven't washed my car in 3 years!

I find I have to put aluminum foil on my v-drums or else the aliens use them to project thoughts into my head.

i've been using tupperware...although you need to remember to burp(lift lid)the tupperware to allow fresh air in once in awhile.....that way when i have the girls over for tea and crumpets my set is as fresh as the day i bought it.without those unsightly stick marks.

Yeah, well I bought my set from Amway. I can get you a great discount if you give me 1/2 an hour of your life.

..and my v,s have more crunch

[IndustrialDrummer]

seriously though, with just the pads on the v-club, do those need to be covered since they aren't as great as the mesh heads?

Seriously, you can't be serious about being serious. At least, not on this thread.

[IndustrialDrummer]

sorry. forgot. :P~~~~

OK, it appears I've taken serveral hits from all of you regarding this suggestion. In response I say, "Go ahead, play on your ole' dusty Vs, see if I care that dust gets inside your mesh pads". Hey, when your drums stop working maybe you all could utilize them as a shaker. It'll be the most expensive shaker you'll ever have spent. And when I'm finished eating dinner off my Vs, I'll cover them up with a smirk on my face.

But dusty V's have that vintage sound you can't reproduce.

bed sheet over the v's when i go to work.......i poundem when i get home....i also use compressed air(like computer duster)every 2 or 3 days........clean as a whistle,,,and no static cling.
