Hi Everyone,

Is it possible to set the head tightness using a electronic tuner.

I've not figured out a way to do that. Head tightness can be a pain, trial and error work best for me. A lot of folks think they have a system but I haven't really found one to be consistant. I use a drum dial, and set the head to about 80 on the dial then go from there, up or down to wherever it sounds the best. If it sounds better on yout first adjustment, you are going the right way, if it sounds worse, go the other way.
