I was insanely lucky to have a father who played (thats him sitting at the computer in background). Beginning in middle school, when I joined the school band, I was able to learn on his monstrous...

Out of my current 6 drum lineup, my top two are:

Mapex Black Panther Cherry Bomb. 13x5.5 cherry shell really pops. Great for most applications, but really perfect for pop/R&B, prog rock & metal. ...

At the risk of the one-word responses, is there anyone with experience with either or both heads that can give actual feedback to the very similar designs of these two heads? Getting new kick heads...

Love my ALs. I replaced the cam blocks with the A21 blocks, and immediately noticed a difference in power (i.e. impact of the beater/moment of apex of pedal downward travel occurs when beater is...

I'll "Like" your page if you "Like" mine. :P

Quid pro quo.

Life got so much better for me when I invested in an ekit so I could not only play any hour of the day, but could play while living in an apartment, like I do now. Im on the 3rd floor, with a modest...

Not too worried about needing to crash on it, I will still have my 20" A Custom which is wonderful for that.

I want to check out the AA and AAX Raw bells in 21"+, and will try to find a Paragon...

Oh. My. God. :icon_eek:

Heres the pilot's seat shot of my new Mapex kit. I am backed against the wall...

Evolution of Coryell pedals goes like this.

Speed King, on my dads 79 Ludwigs. In high school I got a Gibraltar Intruder II double pedal, which followed me to my own Ludwig kit. About 7 years ago...

I love having floor toms on both sides too! I had used 2 16x16s for years, and just this month went to 16 on the left and 18 on the right with the new kit. Aside from not having to twist, being able...

Ive got limited experience with rides outside the general use, rock weight rides. I have used an old Zil&Cie, A Rock, A Custom, and an AA Raw Bell, all 20". They all have great things about them, but...

EMAD Onyx is definitely on list, as is Powerstroke Pro. Ive used PS3s for a long time. No complaints at all, just wanna try out something else to see if pre-muffled heads are my thing.

Fear not, those pics were just after I had removed the pedals to bring back home to my ekit. Axis AL user since 2007.

No one. We are doing it all in house.

Hello all,

So I have been with one of my current bands for a little over a year now, and I am starting to wonder how much of a member of someones solo project I feel instead of a band member. I...

Right now Ive got 3 kits setup in our studio. My kit, my guitarists kit (usually used for practice since he doesnt play them in this project), and my ekit for recording.

Beginning next month, I...

Honestly my major complaint against Periphery is the vocals, same reason I dont care for Tesseract (either vox) or Deftones. Just cant get into the vocals, so unless they change singers Im not sure...

I have both acoustic kits and an ekit. I love them both for the flexilibity in playing and recording ease they give me. My bandmate, who is also a drummer secondary, is planning to convert his...

He is very creative with the basic 4/4. Awesome drumming, but I have yet to acquire a taste for Periphery as a band. Ill take more DTP and Gojira for my Meshuggah copies.

Who knows, a year from...

Well, hopefully around Jan 15th, my new Maple MyDentity kit will arrive!

Dark Red Sparkle with black hardware (already have the Ebony heads awaiting their shells). Took advantage of their BP...

I currently have 2 12", and 14", 16" Wuhans on my kit to accent high end 18 and 22" chinas from Zildjian and Sabian. I love them all. I have used the same 12" for over ten years, and it has only just...
