Another Libra drummer! Been noticing this alot...congrats on the new drums.
Thanks everybody! One more week, then the drums are mine and the pictures are yours! It feels like a lifetime. I'll even break out the mics after I tune them up so you can hear how it all sounds! Unfortunately I'm left with only two mics because one blew out because water got inside it.
I see the general consensus on heads is coated G2s over G1's. @DrumRookie my drum teacher suggested EC2's also, and he knows how I play and what I like, so I'll check both heads out.
Anyway thank you all. I can't freaking wait!
So itchie, how did the kick sound?

P.S. My band is officially starting up again after my new drums get set up. I can't wait for that either. It's going to be great. Prepare for some epic stuff.

Just a heads up-
I took the pictures of the drums as promised, but when my dad bought them he bought an incomplete set; there was no snare drum, tom mounts, cymbal stand, bass drum clamp things, drum throne (Although I got a Roc n' Soc!!)... and he didn't realize he bought an incomplete set, so we're going to the LI Drum Center tomorrow afternoon to get the stuff I need, so part two will be up tomorrow night, hopefully with a recording if I can remember. Sorry about this mishap, I'm disappointed too, but hey, I get a way better snare drum out of it!
The drums are much shinier and prettier in person. These pictures were taken with my phone camera, like usual. I tuned the toms up really easily and with little to no effort, got the sound I wanted out of the stock heads, which are surprisingly nice sounding, and I think I prefer them to the pins haha.
So, without further ado:

Continued-
EDIT: Excuse the messy room. I was really excited and a clean basement was the LAST thing on my mind, believe me.
Like I said, it's an incomplete set, and will most likely be completed by tomorrow night. Toms sound wonderful. I would recommend this set to anybody. The finish is very nice as well. It's well built, sturdy, and hopefully it'll last me a number of years, unlike the sabotage machine I had. Which, coincidentally, had a lug BREAK OFF today (CLEAN off as I removed it from the tom arms, which I reused, since my new set did not come with any), as well as the snare drum throwoff becoming completely broken, rendering both drums (13" tom and 14" snare) completely and utterly useless to me.
Anyway, i'm really stoked I got it set up!!! Much prettier in person. The camera really does not do it justice.

Congratulations! Looks like your having some fun there. I'm surprised the kit didn't have tom mounts included.
Looks sharp man. I guess the incompleteness of the kit kinda enables you to have a custom setup that you will truly enjoy
New drums AND a Roc N Soc? That's a nice score!
Congrats buddy looks really good and glad you have work in progress always god to learn stuff. I wish you all the best with the set

dude, i have a PDP Z5 i bought my kid last xmas, and while the Pearl is undergoing refurbishing im playing it.
i added my Catalina maple snare and Pearl 16 FT to it with G2s and a Genera dry and it sounds damn good for being a cheap poplar kit.
congrats and enjoy.
even student drums are fun to look at in the middle of the night.
