I just dumped my 2024 Heavy Hitter pad and I couldn’t be happier.

I tossed it up on Reverb last week after the brouhaha over on the FB Pad Group.

It doesn’t exactly suck, and I did get it cheap, but the Vic Firth Heavy Hitter guard dogs and their drum bro culture left a bad taste in my mouth, and I was just done.

I came home from a nice visit to Revival Drum Shop today and learned that the pad had sold and it was time to ship. After shipping, I still came out a little ahead. 

Screw MDF, screw the mass producers and screw the drum-bro culture, which still exists no matter how many photos of young women playing snare drum they toss up online. 

Harrumph.
