In the 1970s, Alex Van Halen simply removed the bottom heads from his hanging toms to create concert toms
Single-headed tom-toms (also known as concert toms) have also been used in drum kits, though their use has fallen off in popularity since the 1970s. Concert toms have a single head and a shell slightly shallower than the corresponding double-headed tom. Phil Collins still uses four singled-headed rack-mount toms and two floor toms (Gretsch) in his setup. He claims he tunes his toms to "bark" like a seal.
Recently the term concert tom has also been used to describe double or single headed tom-tom drums designed for use in a concert band rather than in a drum kit.[2]

Rototoms
Main article: rototom
Rototoms have no shell at all, just a single head and a steel frame. Unlike most other drums, they have a variable definite pitch and some composers write for them as a tuned instrument, demanding specific notes. They can be tuned quickly by rotating the head. Since the head rotates on a thread, this raises or lowers the head relative to the rim of the drum and so increases or decreases the tension in the head.

Gong bass drum
Main article: gong bass drum
A gong bass drum (also known as "gong drum"), is a large, single-headed tom often sized at 20 in (51 cm) or 22 in (56 cm), with the drumhead being 2 in (5.1 cm) larger than the shell. The sound produced is similar to a bass drum, though it is more open and has longer sustain. They can be mounted with standard floor tom legs, though many drummers mount them at an angle next to the floor tom(s). Notable users include Neil Peart, Stewart Copeland, Bill Bruford, Simon Phillips, Jason Bittner, Mike Portnoy and Dom Howard.

Floor tom
Main article: floor tom
A floor tom is a double-skin drum, most often but not always as deep as its diameter, traditionally mounted on three legs and to the drummers right for a right-handed drummer. It is normally the deepest toned drum played by sticks in the kit, above the bass drum but below all others, and the most resonant, more so than even the bass drum.
