Drums hardware( Lugs, Rims and skins)

[Gates]

Hi guys, i have a rusty Tama drum-set and i would like to change the parts(hardware and skin) as mentioned above.

Just curious..

1) Am i able to fit parts from other brands onto a Tama?

2) Are there are any music/drum shops in Singapore that offer services such as changing of all these parts, skins, tuning etc; ?

3) The estimated cost of such parts/service.

Thanks for reading. Hope to get some help soon so that i will be able to continue drumming asap.

Cheers!

Hardware such as hoops, tension rods and all that, you can get them over at ranking. Gibraltar spare parts should work fine! Just remember to measure or bring one of hardware piece down to make sure you're buying the right size/length (especially tension rods!) As for lugs, im not too sure cause i've never replaced mine before. Alot of calculation and measurements has to be done regarding the replacement of lugs on your drum so you'll have to get some help if possible!

Regarding drumheads,
Remo - Swee Lee
Evans - Ranking
Attack - Alvin at The Music Lab (not sure if he still sells them!)
Aquarian - Nigel at Drum Resources
depends on which brand of drumheads you prefer! Alvin and Nigel does tuning services so you can look for them to help you! Otherwise, try exploring different ways of tuning yourself!

Hope this helps!
