Tama WHP2 Wood Hoop Saver

Most hoop savers are too thick and it can be problematic to attach certain bass drum pedals to the bass drum hoop. This Wood hoop saver is ultra thin but made from strong rubber. Love it, and you can even put one on each side of the hoop to protect it even further.

These hoop savers a little thin , which is not necessary a bad thing, they are low profile and look nice but still, just to be on a safe side, I use them on the bottom of hoop, and on the top of the hoop I use thicker Gibraltar SC-BDHG Bass Drum Hoop Guard, so they combine really well, one below , other above, complete protection from pedal scratches.

Cheap, durable so far, fit perfectly

They are not bad for the price. My issue however is they get squished very easily if you tighten the pedal a bit too much and then the squish marks just stay. And they tend to un-stick at the edges. They are also way too thin in my opinion. I am almost afraid the clamp will crunch my hoop right through them if i accidentally overcrank it. I use 2 pairs and stick em together 2 by 2 with super glue. And again, they tend to unstick. Maybe i just got a bad batch, but i expected better, honestly.

Well, this is very simple.
I have a very cute looking Pearl Piccolo bass drum, and i would much like to keep it in good shape.

So this cheap product is a 'no brainer':
It protects your rim and also keeps the pedal in place without having to apply max pressure on the bolts.

Gotta have it!

Seeing the mess the pedal claw makes of the wood I thought I would try these for my new rims. They are now taking the damage and the rims are as good as new! Brilliant.

Unfortunatelly not so impressed by this product. Became lose after a few gigs. I don't recommend this product if you play a lot of live gigs. When you however use it only in practiceroom and you keep pedal in place it's ok.

Very thin and discreet and totally necessary. You'd ruin your wooden hoop without it. They are thin and rubbery so the pedal slides over it no problem.

good quality rubber hoop saver stay on with good adhesive and save the hoop from scratches and chips.

Easy to install not as sticky as expected
