Does anyone here use 10'' tom as main rack tom? I experimented with it last night and I do like it a lot. I think it sounds great with a 10, 14, 16 combo. The only hang up I have is the fact that I'm 6'3 and it looks tiny in front of me. What do you guys think?
a 10 makes a nice sound, it just rules out doing a lot of Zep covers.
Dayne Lawless would disagree* (8" and 12" toms, 16" kick):

*obviously tungue in cheek, I just like that video ;-)
I play a 10 rack, and a 14 floor. Love it!
Playing just a 10" rack tom with a 14" or 16" floor tom would be like looking at a beautiful woman with a front tooth missing. It could certainly be done, but I would much rather have the gap filled in.
