Jeff Ocheltree has a DVD called "Trust your ears" where he talks about his experience teching for Bonham. Haven't seen it in a while, but from memory on the kick drum, I believe it was was basically a 2 ply coated on the batter, and 1 ply coated on resonant side for the maple kits. They also used a felt strip under the resonant and batter heads. The resonant side was tuned higher than the batter head.
