Thanks AnimalDrums9585. That is an awesome color for the kit! I love mine and I believe that it is a great kit!

OK Guys, So I've Been very busy lately finally making the upgrades and adding the additions that I felt were needed for my kit. Scroll up 3 posts before this one to see the Before Pictures of my kit (They were Quoted by: AnimalDrums9585). Here are the after pictures (Specs are in my signature):




I am very proud to have worked so hard to get the kit to where it is now. It may not seem like much, but When you are 16 like I am, and you've never worked harder to get anything before in your life, This is the real stuff. Glad I can share it with you guys! Take it easy

You should be proud, you deserve it, you worked for it, well done, and thanks for sharing.

MCD, you should be very proud of what you've accomplished with your work. The kit's filling out nicely, and it's a beauty, for sure.

Great looking kit Vibes

Vibes, love your kit.

Amazing looking kit Vibes!!!! Love the way it's set up too.

[VIbes]

Thanks all, my fav kit now. I doubt very seriously I will ever use the whole kit on a gig. I did play it on a gig the first time last week using the set up in the first pic. More than likely as a 4 piece with different floor toms, and occasionally as a 5 piece with the double mounted 13's. Have lots of nice options with all the different toms.

Nice! What snare are you using?

It is 14" x 5.5" OCDP Maple. With cast rims, nickle plated chrome hardware. It has a beautiful fade and sleek lug design.. It was love at first sight, and then heard it and bought it on the spot.

That is a nice looking snare for sure. I know. I've had my eyes check and have confirmed 20/20 vision.

But importantly, how does it sound?

[pastor_bob]

AD, that snare really does have a beautiful design! Sounding good just makes a beautiful snare all the better.

But importantly, how does it sound?

It sounds great, I have it tuned fairly tight. Very snappy with a solid crack, great snare sensitivity. Sometimes, It's a bit loud for my jam room so I'll throw a remo ring on it to calm it down and dry it out. Flipped to tenor, it has a great resonance and warm tone. I know there are better brands and such that have minuet differences, but for under $200, I love it!

Cool snare, Animal.

[marko138]

Man that's a cool picture! Love it

Thanks brother. That's my old basement. That wall was great for taking pics of the kit. I sold that house in December. New place is much nicer but not nearly as picturesque for the kit.

[VIbes]

Thanks Marty. Rogers are sooo good. I have a old 70 something set. They sound good on everything.

Nice score, were two 13's original with the kit?

^^^ When I was a kid, I hated sparkle finishes, or anything not black for that matter. I have come full circle and thanks to DrumChat and sparkles and Pearls are now my favorites. That Champagne kit is amazing. Congrats Vibes!

Sometimes i'll not like something til I see a buddy or pro rocking it. Makes me think man someone really loves this, no way I can have a hangup about it.
