Roland VMH-D1 Drum Headphones D ’ Addario Pad Lock Guitar Strap
New Wireless Mics by CAD Audio
Roland just released their new VMH-D1 headphones designed specifically with drummers in mind ! Features such as a cable setup to fit behind your neck instead of in front make these full ear enclosure headphones better for percussionists while playing . The VMH-D1 package includes a carrying back , cable for drumming , cable for listening , cable restraint , 1.4 ” adapter and a hanger to rest your headphones on the drum kit when not playing ! The top of the head brace is nicely cushioned for hours of comfortable wear as are the ear pads with excellent ambience sound rejection . Frequency response is 5-40,000Hz and they are custom tuned for electronic drum musicians . Priced at $ 179.99 the sound quality and reproduction on the VMH-D1 headphones is superior to other standard headphones that aren ’ t created with electronic drummers in mind . Hearing what you ’ re playing and protecting your hearing is a concern for every musician and the Roland VMH-D1 stereo headphones do a great job with both ! www . roland . com
If you don ’ t want to add strap lock buttons to your instrument but still want to keep it secure then D ’ Addario ’ s new Pad Lock Guitar Strap could be the answer . The strap has a 2 ” wide black tubular nylon construction , adjusts from 32.5 ” to a max of 57.5 ”. Once your attach the Pad Lock Guitar Strap to your instrument just slip over the rubber tabs over your strap button to secure it .
D ’ Addario currently offers plain black , lightning black , Monterey , Parallel Flowers and ( my favorite ) Phoenix Dream . At $ 24.99 the Pad Lock Guitar Straps don ’ t cost more than your average strap but do provide more security without the need to alter your instrument ! I hope they offer them in a 3 ” inch width for heavier instruments in the near future too ! www . daddario . com
