	The heads that come with the manufacturer can be used for quite a few years unless, especially if they are strictly used for concert style playing. Since the tension is not very tight, and the playing is usually fairly moderate with regards to force, the heads can last 3-4 years or more.

	=== Grips ===		=== Grips ===
			Generally matched grip is used for beginning players. Most of the time the bass drum is played with one hand (usually the right) while the left muffles the resonant head. When you need to use two hands for quick passages or rolls, matched grip can be used.

			Traditional grip is also a good way to play the bass drum as the drum is usually set mostly vertical. The left hand can easily reach over the top and play the drum using traditional grip. This allows the performer to be a bit more relaxed, especially in the left shoulder.
