Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Dear all,

as quite recently reported I suffered from that well-known wear
problem of the rubber surface of the KP60 kicktower. Yamaha Germany
replaced it under guarantee. - Well, to avoid that to happen a second
time I posted a note to this forum and the recommendations was to glue
a selfmade patch on the pad, e.g. soemthing cut of of a mousepad or
similar.

In a catalogue I now saw drumhead patches for acoustic drum sets/nylon
heads made by EVANS and Danmar. They seem to have a size of 4-5" and
have some adhesive tape on the backside to stick on the head. Price 5
bucks each.

Does anybody have experience with those?
