What if my bass drum is only 19 inches? Is it easy to cut these pads down?

the bass drum pad is different from the rest, it's more like a couch cushion where it's light and can compress, so it would be a lot easier to cut thatthe other pads are solid rubber

Oh Yeah. The bass drum pad is made out of foam so some scissors will definitely do the trick

Yes. As long as you have the bass drum pad assembly with the bass drum pedal.

Haven't had the need to lower them. I usually play it in open G tuning or double drop D for some authentic southern delta blues so using a slide on it the string height works for me! Your best bet would be to google or YouTube it and see.. im sure there is a way you could shave thebridge but you would have to make sure you do it in a way you still have your radius of the neck in line with the bridge!

Yes, they can be cut to size. But they are less stable the smaller they are. I cut one in quarters for the small round legs of an ottoman. It is firmly in place, but if someone tries to move it, they can push it off the pads. The pads are pretty thick, with a layer of cushion in between to rubber parts. (I was just expecting a flat rubber piece)

NOT unless you want to cut the 2 sides. I think they make a shorter size... search for it.

There's a single velcro disc about the size of a quarter. I left my pad in place continuously for six months and the adhesive on the drum head gave out. Now I use three office binder clips on the rim -- works fine. I'd say they cut the volume by half, maybe 2/3. It's just a dull thud that doesn't carry like resonating tom would. Everyone in the house will know when you play, but a couple rooms away with doors closed they'll be able to watch TV, etc.

This is the drum pedal I use on the drum pad... it is pretty effective. Cannon UP1220DP Bass Drum PedalIt also works with double bass pedals. The surface is quite large.

Yes, that's what I'm using mine for, it works just fine. Make sure your bass drum pad can fit two beaters though

They fit a standard sized set so they should fit but they might be a little big on the smaller drums. I have 22, 16, 14, 13 and 12" drums and they fit fine.

I bought these to make a set of snare drums into end tables. Because of that, I have them as low as possible, with 3 inch snares on them, and 1/2 glass top, andhe snare bottom rests at 19.5 inches. I raised them all the way up, and the snare bottom rested at 21 inches. They look fantastic by the way, but I'm sure that's not why you are interested in them. Hope this helps.

Actually, depending on how many cymbals you have in your array, I might consider the 22". I have only 20" cymbals in maximum circumference but I have about 3 of them (Ride, Crash, Novo China) plus 18", 16", 14" Crashes, 12" splash and 2 pairs of 14" hi-hats. The added zip-up hi-hat pouch accommodates all of this very easy. I suggest getting a 22" just for future additions to your cymbal set. I hope this helps. Best of luck.

Sure. They're easy to cut. I think Scar Away also has 3" ones if that's a better size for you.

Yeah there is a velcro to attach it with the bass drum. And it is very effective! If you keep your drums in a room and close the door the drums won't be audible to anyone in the other rooms! But they may be able to listen to tapping caused on the bass drum. And i am really glad it is able to mute the cymbals completely!! You should buy them !

I'm afraid I'm not sure about that. I've only used these on my Ludwig Supraphonic snare drum.Take care

Yeah, that's kind of true. You should probably get one with an actual base drum pedal if that bothers you. It doesn't bother me though, it's easier to hit the pedal. They're good. --my son, N.

Hi Mark, I'm not sure if you should remove the feet but my guess is that if you leave them on you will get the highest degree of isolation. However I probably would remove them if they are the spike style. But that's just a guess. Hope this help and enjoy the bass!
