The Pearl JG16 is a very good idea, it enables you to use your floor tom as a bass drum and effectively make your drum kit smaller for those gigs where a full size kit is over kill. I bought the kit for small jazz combos. I converted my Premier 16" by 18" floor tom, you will require the optional Pearl 'ISS' which is usually supplied with a BT-3. A issue I had was that my Premier hoop was not compatible with the Pearl ISS reciever, however I had a spare Yamaha hoop which did the trick. This is a very tidy concept and works well for musicians who may have limited space or are doing gigs in smaller venues.

Where other companies are offering jungle &/or bebop kits, Pearl has created this brilliant "16 tom to bass converter. I mean let's face it, half our gigs don't require a "26 bass drum! This saves money on larger skins and hassle on lugging around bigger drums, and I've also price compared with DW's bass converter and they want 2 or 3 times as much...thank you Pearl!!!

Best System for FT->BD Conversion

I have used several "cradle" type settings for FT->BD conversion, but Pearl's "Jungle Jig floor tom to Bass Drum converter Kit" is so far the best among all. It is secure, easy, nice looking, and inexpensive. I have nothing bad to say about it, and thus perfect 10 score..
