I see what you're saying. I guess I'm asking for too much, because I'm tuning the stock head waaaaay down, in order to get close to the "Marcos Suzano" sound, but the tuners fall out before I can get that low.
Obviously, Suzano is using hide heads and I'm not, so I had the crazy idea of getting some fiberskyn (or however it's spelled) head from a tom onto this puppy. But, yes, these are cheap instruments, so I am prepared to pay more for the head than I paid for the entire instrument when I bought it (US $45, IIRC).
Thanks for replying.
