I was in a conversation this evening about the AQ series and it was again stated that the shells are undersized. We can debate all day, but if someone would measure their shells and report back with the measurements and hopefully pictures of the measurements, it will help settle this for good.
Help us build DRUMANDSTAGE! We're looking for a few good people to join the team and grow our Sonor community. LEARN MORE HERE
Who has a set of AQs?

I have a set. I'm pretty sure they don't use OSM but will try to pop a head off and measure at some point this weekend.

Just try to eyeball it without taking the head off first. Maybe it might work?
Thanks for coming!

Here's what I was able to get from 10" tom. End of the tape measure is at the end of the shell next to a lug and other end in this pic is opposite of that lug.
