Are the Craft kens standard size or Plus? Aren't the Slaydawg tamas a little bigger? I'd be interested in your thoughts on Slim VS 2.0 with those tamas.
They are the craft plus, which is about 5% bigger and the slaydawg is about 2% bigger. Once I have used both these damas for a week I will make a whole new thread about the benefits of each, and which one I like better.
I’ve been jamming this maple OG Homegrown x F3 aTack stripe and a purple striped zen with a ken I customized! Both play very well and are good for tracking!
Some new favorites. Mugen Musou Glacier Turquoise tama x Ozora keyaki ken x Sanga keyaki sarado KUSA Tribute Super Stick Glacier White tama x 2.0 Dave Mateo Dream Dama pro mod ken Sol Blueberry Frost/Static Shock Vibe tama x GT-1.5 hickory ken
Not even close to broken in yet but this Lyonken Pear tama x Bday Krom is already honed to all hell. I laced it up with a spinner bead and a krom yellow string and right off the bat I fell in love. Landed a lunar flip first try on it, with the string still super stiff. I wasnt going to pair until I weighed some of my kens and spare tamas and found that both were right at about 80.5 grams. It is a little on the heavy side for me but I immediately knew these two were going to retire together.
Musous are still practically the same size tama-wise, and cup-wise, the only difference is that the kens are taller, so they are still 100% compatible with all standard kendamas
