Humidifier package for bass drum

Humidifier rod with sponges , receiving hardware, and curved wood backing plate ( to be glued inside your Bass Drum shell if it is too thin). I include a paper template to be used to mark the drilling locations.

You'll need a drill, 2" Hole bit and 1/8 " bit , epoxy cement, a flat blade or phillips screw driver, and a steady hand.

When there is low humidty in the air , your calfskin drum heads may get too tight to play.

Rather than loosening the tuning rods a lot and risk losing the "collar" on the calfskin drum head , these Humidifier Rods with Sponges prevent your calf skin drum heads from getting too tight and allow a greater ease of tuning.

I install them in all my Concert Bass Drums. I use materials that will not rust.

They are effective when installed about 4" from the head.

For a Bass Drum with two calf heads I recommend 2 humidifiers. Each about 4" from each head.

To use them after installation , you simply soak the sponges in water ( under a faucet) , SQUEEZE OUT THE EXCESS WATER ( so it is not dripping) and put back in the drum. It takes 20" - 30 " to start affecting the calf skin drum head.

If it is dry enough in your concert hall or region to merit the use of the Humidifier then its' use will probably not over humidify your calf skin heads.

Please mention the diameter of your Bass Drum in the comment box when ordering. (ie. 36", 34",32' 30",28" etc.)
