I ordered the Famogu wing nuts in red for my drummer because he’s going for a color scheme on his kit. He even has red cymbal felts now.

I do have a pack of moongels in my emergency kit, but I haven't used them yet. I also made my own "jingle-ring" out of found objects.

The bootleg moongel is actually really impressive🤯 I wouldn't be surprised if they become more popular than the actual ones!

I agree, I've used moongel and those exact same "bootleg" versions, much prefer the cheaper ones. Cant abide the moongels trying to attach to your fingers when you position them on the drum heads. I got blue gel stains too. Evans red gel is very similar to the bootleg ones (sticks well, not so tacky on the top surface), but it leaves a pink stain on the drum heads

Best drum content

Tied with the drum thing

The moon gel knock off was easily the best one out of the bunch. I was really surprised at the durability through the heat test. The Ludwig snare is also really solid and sounded as good as it looks🤌

the moongel experiment was my favorite. I've been using them for years and witnessed them breaking down the same way, even without exposure to harsh elements. Thanks for always making great content rdavidr 🥁🥁🥁

Moongel: the drumstick's soulmate 🥁

I liked the fake moongels and your experiment. It’s very true that moongel fall apart and are unusable after dust and grime. Don’t drop them on your drum rug either! Really appreciate your info! 🏆

Had some good results extending the life of my moongels( brand or copy) by giving them a little wash and rince using room temp water and a little handsoap, even after falling of and getting all dusted and dirty, came back like new.

The Keplinger sounded so good! By far my favorite. I have the Meinl on my hi hat when I’m playing a more acoustic gig. Loved the video as always!! 🧔

Loved the sound of the Ludwig snare. It needs to be in my collection. ❤

As a younger drummer (15) it’s safe to say I’ve had to find some cheaper drum accessories and these bootleg moongels are probably the best I’ve seen in a while lol🤪

The cheap gel dampers surprised me. They held up, left no mark, and seem to be made of a better material, for less price. That is a total win for me!🎸

Definitely loved the comparison between the Ludwig and Eastrock snare. Not only does the Ludwig sound better, you can see the quality of construction without needing to actually feel it. That, and the outer layer is beautiful 🥁😁

The Moongel product didn't surprise me. I have been using another brand that looks a lot like your "knockoff" brand, and it's far superior to Moongel in every way imaginable.😊

The knockoff Moongel was really impressive for the price. It is really smart to have one side not be sticky. Also the strong hold on the fake Moongel was cool too.😇

My favorite was the Keplinger ching ring. Nice loud sandy sounding! Thanks for all your awesome videos! ⚙

Gotta love how the cheap gels completely outmatched the moongels 🥺🥺🥺🥺

The fake Moongel was my favourite product. I've always had the problem of getting stick shavings etc on them 😂

I love the knockoff moongels! 😃 Around the holidays, you can find window decor gels at the dollar tree, so that way you can have little Christmas trees in your toms!

I really like the bootleg moongel. It worked surprisingly well 😯🥁

My favorite is the moongel knock-offs. Ive never been completely on board with moongel and have switched to using snareweights instead but seeing how much better the knock-off ones are I would use those as well. 👌🏻

I actually really liked the tip on the knock-off moon-gels. Looked useful since I feel like I'm always going through the normal moon-gels. Appreciate that!🔵👍🏼

My favorite product was easily the Ludwig Universal. 🥁 However, my favorite review/comparison was the Moongel vs knock-offs. I’ve never been a big fan of Moongels for all the reasons you mentioned. 🤘🏼

I love the moon gel tip. I’ve been buying real moongel forever and knowing that the nock off is honestly better will save me a lot of money 💰 ❤

My favourite was the boolteg moongels! Love them!🥁

Step aside, drumming world! Bootleg Moongel is here to stick around and make some seriously groovy Magic happen! 🤘

The knock-off moon gels actually surprised me! Many drummers say to go and buy moongels but the knock-offs are just as good! 👍

My favourite was definitely the moon gel, it didn’t have as good dampening as the real deal but I’d use it any day! 👍

I liked how the knockoff moongel could resist the heat so well 🔥 also the keplinger just sounded really cool.

Loved the moongel comparison. Very intelligent staining comparison. Also loved finding out that the knockoffs arent sticky on both sides. Huge plus. Your drum hacks and comparisons are GENIUS!! ( is that enough kissing up??😉😘😉

I really liked the Keplinger ching ring! Also I think the best bootleg part would be the fake moongels, they definitely performed better in your test! 🥁😁

I like the dumpening stickers the most, those knok offs were originally the gel stickers for shoes to protect the back of your feet:D I used to buy them for like 1$ for 30 pieces. In Poland we used them as bootlegs for moongels for many years. It's funny that finally someone noticed that and is selling them as drum dumpeners.

My favorite was totally the moongel knockoffs. They were 10 times better than the real thing! Great video as always. 😃😃😁😄

Personally I’m a fan of the cheaper made moon gels, 1. Because you’re getting more gels compared to the RTOM ones and they’re still a similar size. 2. The option you can get multiple colors choice for these is always fun to see. 🥁🥁

I have two favorites. The first one was the moongel vs bootleg Amazon version. The second is the Ching rings. I liked that Greg Keplinger Ching ring. I love how bright and loud it is🔥

The comparison between the three ching rings was pretty cool, but that fake moongel has to be my favorite accessory out of the other ones. I always use moongels but them fake ones are game changing! 🙌

I was once at a gig where I left my drum honey so I went to a dollar tree and bought some of those Christmas window gel thingys. Actually ended up working as a cheap solution and I wasn't surprised when the cheap one worked today. Glad you opened this problem to the public 🙌

I think the bootleg Moongel was my favorite product in this video. Real Moongels react with a LOT of surfaces. Don’t leave one on your studio desk overnight, for example. 😊

I liked the keplinger just because I believe it’s an accessory that can be used very well give it more sound and volume to your playing 😊❤ love the vids bro, keep it up

I use moongel for snare i was really surprise by the generic gel patch awesome vid thankyou and all your team behind you❤❤🥁🤟🏼🤟🏼🇨🇦

I love the Ching ring, the fake one was really bad. I would purchase the expensive one. Now the moon gels, I love the fact that the cheap ones out did the moon gels brand. Great comparison love the video ❤🎉

The Ludwig had a great sound. The sound of the Eastrock was surprising Givin the cost. With the side by side to the beech. The beach hands down a much fuller sound🫠. My favorite product on this. A very close second is the dampening gels😮

I tried the 30 for $9 drum dampeners, and they worked as described in your video. Thanks!

My favorite was the ludwig snare. Definitely need it to bolster my snare collection!! 🥁 🥁 🥁

The "30 Pieces Drum Dampeners Gels Silicone Gel Pads Soft Drum Dampeners for Drums Cymbals Tone Control, 30 Pieces, Color Set 1" was the best, for sure. They're on my wish list, now. Thanks David!

I have a ton of history with moongel knockoffs (thanks in large part to you and "Mr. Star" 😂). I've hated moongel since I first used it back in highschool so it's nice seeing so many others making a product far superior to the "industry standard." Also, I really dig the fact these ones are tacky on only one side. Huge plus for me

That’s a beautiful drum. My favorite, I think was the generic gel dampers. 😮 after seeing the difference being left out in the sun for a day the choice was really clear. 👍🏻

The snare drum throw comparison between DW and knock off was the best because I was able to clearly see the difference between the two😎😎😎

Honestly the moongel knockoffs really surprised me. I’ve seen that listing a dozen times, but I’ve never tested them. I always thought “well it’s 30 for $9, they can’t be that good.” Thank you for testing these! 💫

Out of the bootleg items, I liked the moongels. The muffling on them were not as great as the actual moongels but not terrible (the same cannot be said about some of the other bootlegs lol). I also found the lack of staining to be a plus. Out of the non-bootleg items, I liked the Meinl ching ring as I think it’s a nice balance between price and performance. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Loved the knock-off moongel =) From Portugal and thanks for all the knowledge sharing 🦾

The real deal Tama quick sets, absolute top tier favourite ヘ( ^o^)ノ＼(^_^ ) Makes me anxious think about past gigging without them.

Knock off gels were surprising, going to buy them now. Great video.

That Gregg Keplinger Ching Ring sounded absolutely fantastic 🔥 Love your channel David, have made a few of your contraptions myself! The O-Jing being one of them!! 🥁

I’ve been using window clings in place of Moongel for years🤛🏽. I actually bought some of the knockoff ones you demoed and put them in tiny lock and lock style containers, to drag them around. 🤘

I honestly rarely appreciate the sound of a ching ring, but boy howdy did I dig that Keplinger. Absolutely popped 🎊 in a really nice way. Also, thanks for making me feel like a fool for buying brand-name moongels when I was setting up my buddy's kit for recording.

Best part was the Moon gel knock offs and the 105° heat test awesome 🥁🔥🥁

My fav product: the Knockoff Moongels! Got a few packs of those for church and works surprisingly good! 🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥

Getting a Mag throw off knock-off for sure😂 loved the Ludwig🥁

The knockoff moongel was definitely my favourite. I've already ordered them and I can't wait to try them out. 😍🔥

😮 I liked the fake "moon gel" knock offs best! The DW Mag Throw off comparison was my second favorite and very informative! Yippee! 🎉

Another awesome video David, your info is the best. 😃🥁 I would have to say my favorite here was the cymbal quick connects. I have the real deal, great product!

that snare was my favorite product 🥁... I needs that thang!! 😊

That was fun! It's pretty wild how just the weight of something, really shows how nice it is.

Always fire content! Favorite item was Def that snare 🤩

The bootleg moongel was my favorite surprisingly 😂

Thanks for the breakdown of real vs bootleg accessories. I have the Meinl ching-ring and have always liked the sound and build, but now I'm interested in getting the Keplinger as it sounds great and looks like its made well.

My school has used those knock-off moongel stickies for a while. Honestly, it's better than the actual product. Great video ❤

The ching ring gotta be my favorite, it just adds so much! 🐱

Loved the videos, thanks for keeping the druming fun and different from the hardware standpoint

Very impressed with the Knock off moongels. Definitely gonna pick up a set soon 🥁

The Meinl Ching ring stood right out 😍

Great video as always 👍 the knock off moongels are in my future, my daughters are constantly taking mine to play with

Knock=offf moon gel was my fave, followed by the low-end snare that sounded surprisingly good.

I love the moon gel substitute I’ve been looking for something better just order them🎉🎉 you are my favourite drum KZread channel you help keep my passion alive when I can drum often.😢

Loved the bootleg moongels!! 🙇🏽‍♂️ now fingers crossed I can use them on this Ludwig snare 🤞🏽

The Keplinger Ching ring is a secret weapon! Was blown away by how unique it sounded 🌅

My favorite was the Ludwig snare drum. I made this decision after 40 years of playing drums. Greetings from Hungary!🥁

My favorite is the knockoff moon gels! That Ludwig snare is killer! 😍😎👍

i honestly loved the snare drum comparison between the ludwig and the 60 dollar one💀💀💀💀

I really loved the fake moon gels. It’s wild to see that the sun turned it clear and super gummy while the Knock off remained I nearly perfect condition 😌

Bootleg Moongel looked good, I would buy them. Thank you rdavidr for everything you do! stay awesome! 👍

Favorite Product: Knock-Off Moon Gels! Great Video, by the way!

Gotta say, the cheap moon gels are impressive! The non sticky top side will help with the stick shaving OCD for sure 🥁

I like the Dow snare throw and was surprised how cheap a real one is! ❤

I never knew those ching rings were a thing. Just recently started drumming and am loving learning new things from the reviews on your channel 😃

Favourite was the Ching ring for me sounded full and unique 🤘

Knock off moon gel for the win 🎉 I have used a lot of holiday window gels like you’ve shown in previous videos but those only being sticky on one side 10/10

My favorite was the bootleg moongel very high quality for a cheap price and does not stain your drums 👍

moongel was my favourite as i recently bought those exact ones and they have been amazing for me🥁

I liked the quick wing nuts, so simple to use! :)

Thanks😬😬the snare drum is amazing!

the greg keplinger ching ring was fire🔥🥁

Love the comparisons. ❤

Thanks for explaining the throw off! I just got a snare with a knockoff one on it. I'll be replacing it now! 🤘🥁🤘

My fav product are those cheap dampeners i use them all the time on everything even my cymbals. definitely a lifesaver if you’re feeling helpless with tuning 🌝

I darn liked that moongel comparison. I found myself sumin' dirt cheap! 🤠🥁

I loved the moongels! I actually have them myself because they are such a great deal! 🥁

I'm really impressed with the bootleg moon gels. I'm currently going through a 100+ degree heat wave 😮 so I'll be buying some of those 30 pieces drum dampeners 🎉🎉

The Bootleg Moon Gels were my favorite. Good price and you get a lot of them compared to the 6 from the OG brand. I don't know how many times I've had OG moon gels melt and stain my drum heads. Awesome video bro!

My favourite product was the "30 Pieces Drum Dampeners Gels Silicone Gel Pads Soft Drum Dampeners For Drums Cymbals Tone Control, 30 Pieces, Color Set 1" 🥁

The wing nuts review was very interesting. More reviews always.😊
