View Full Version : Drum Pad Failure

So, while I was playing today I started to notice a strange vibration coming from the yellow pad after each hit. Along with the vibration I was getting multiple hits from a single strike on the pad. I cracked open the pad and sure enough the bracket that holds the piezo on had broken (pic below). Simply super-glueing the bracket will fix the problem, but will this void the warranty? Stupid question...I know.
My guess is this failure will happen to more people than just me. You may want to take some preventive measures before this happens to you. Maybe some epoxy or hot glue around the support would help to relieve the stress on this component.
