Hey everyone,
I’ve been having some bother with my DW5000 Turbo that I bought while on holiday in 2017. I hadn’t any bother playing it until about a year ago when the original spring broke. Since then, I’ve been buying replacement springs (DW’s own Sm020 springs) and they’ve been breaking every couple of months. They all break at the very bottom.
I usually play with max spring tension, beater angle as far from the head as possible and with weight on the beater (Very heavy footed, play in a loud rock band), but I’d like to think DW would make springs to accommodate their own pedal settings.
Has anyone any suggestions for very tight and durable springs that I could try instead?
Thanks!
