Recovering Drum Heads
By Philip Jamison

I believe the Remo brand synthetic skin drum heads are best.  They look
real and are unaffected by humidity, thus needing little "tuning".
I tried to get them directly from Remo, but you need to be a dealer. Mike
Kitner (Carlisle, PA), an A-1 band-organ restorer, gets his drum heads
from this firm.  They will do any size.  You might order through him.

Another guy I know who does drum heads is Bill's Drum Shop, 233-F
Stokes Street, Huntsville, AL 35805, (205)533-3786.  He does repairs,
recovering, raw shells & hoops.  Just send him what you have and he'll
restore it.
