There is no doubt in my mind that the elusive art of hide selection is a dying craft. Id like to keep it alive!
I find it interesting though that custom drum builders cant seem to figure out that not all rawhide is created equal.
But I know one man that stands alone in the crowd and when the new (reissue) line hits the market ( hint hint) everyone will be very pleased with the skins ( fingers crossed).
If I had the time I would set up a poll but I'm just going to put it out here and ask for feedback via email.
