Think outside the box. Bought 3 protectors, drilled chrome cross-members and bolted them to L brackets and then clamped those to 1" square steel tubes. Tightened them onto my bass drum bottom hoop. Instant, secure, gong bass support system :-) https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=7399738713389861 https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=7399738813389851
These attach easily and securely, and provide a place for the bass drum player to play "clicks" without damaging the instrument. One of my first years of teaching I learned the hard way that a bass drum hoop can go from great condition to "needing replacement' in a single season. A student doesn't have to be malicious to damage the hoop - just asking them to play on the rim on a regular basis will quickly eat away at wooden hoops.
Bought these to go with our new 4 Pearl Competition BD's we bought from SW. Fit great, sound great. Don't pay attention to the negative reviews on here. They are not designed for a drumset bass drum or an accessory holder. Why give a negative review for something other than its intended for? Great price vs. name brand, and with a thumb nail, you can take off the sticker that says made in taiwan.
So far, so good. Works like the "name brand" but so much better on your pocket book/school funds!
The hoop protector sounds good, but doesn't work like I hoped. I was hoping to use it on a drum set bass drum for a multiple percussion piece. Unfortunately it doesn't fit my Pearl bass drum hoop very well.
