I'm a rimshot freak, and my Yamaha Musashi snare doesnt want to stay in tune as a result. The snare is fabulous, but it's annoying having to retune it every couple of songs. I've tried those tight-screw tension rods, and those worked alright for a little while but they started loosening up after a few head changes (they arent meant to be a permanent solution from what I've read) and I've also tried those plastic lug lock things that are supposed to keep your tension rods from turning. Now those are starting to wear out from installing and removing them for tuning adjustments and head changes.
Does anyone have any tricks they've aquired over the years? Would Die Cast hoops help? Are there any other gizmos that I can throw my money at that are more of a permanent solution than the tight screw or lug locks? Rubber or plastic washers maybe?
