John "Beaky" Dymond's Drum Sets
During performances of Save Me, John "Beaky" Dymond's role is on percussion. This line-up seems rare for a band during its time, with Tich being the only guitarist for the song.
The song starts with a percussive introduction, with Beaky hammering on the cowbell. In certain moments, mainly before the chorus, Beaky would also hit the toms that was included in the percussion set.
The set itself was two toms, and a cowbell in the middle, the toms itself are tuned differently than normal tom-toms, as it sounded higher with their small size.
Beaky would only use this instrument for this song in particular, and would not really appear with it beyond 1967.
Note: The brand of the cowbell is still unknown, but it had a shiny design on it, and so I chose the brand which has the closest shade and color.
