Big Deal? BIG DEAL?! How very dare you, sir. I'm beginning to wonder if you're a drummist at all, as every drummer can and does geek out over such fine details. (btw, joking, just in case that wasn't coming across).

But, as an example of such drumming anal retentiveness, have you ever heard the story of how Steve Gadd flipped out at Zildjian because they restamped the logo on his hi-hats after offering to clean them? It's true, some guy told me. (ymmv)

But in all seriousness, I've found (in my limited playing experience) that the BB is a pretty dry drum to start with, dry and glorious. It's definitely got it's own sound, as proven by the fact that no BB copy ever sounds like a BB, and I have a good one (a copy that is).
