The Craft Behind the Sound

[Liahona]

I'm not a drummer, but stumbled on this and thought it was worth sharing here... This video walks through how several percussion instruments are made, including snare, congas, and steel drums... There’s something grounding about seeing where the sound begins IMO...Amazing

 Fascinating what goes into making these... I was particularly impressed with the tuning of the drumsticks. As a non drummer, i had no idea of the detailed work that goes into a drum stick's tuning, and how its tested electronically for each sticks tuning and match up of that for a uniform set of two for its sound. From start to finish, this was an interesting video of the making of different drums and drumsticks. Thanks for sharing.
