    Pictures of Drumkits

    Just thought I would start a new thread, maybe it has been done before but I thought it would be fun.

    Basically, upload pictures of what you believe are beautiful drum kits and the reasons why, this can be because:

    - You love the finish
    - You love the sound
    - You love what they are made from
    - They are classics/vintage
    - Or even if you just love the way they are set up in the photo.

    If you can give any further info on the kit then do it.

    I'll start us off with this one, because I love the finish and the set up.

    This is a Tama Starclassic Bubinga ELITE. The shells are 8ply bubinga + 1 outer ply maple or Cordia or Quilted Bubinga with a black metallic with gold inlay finish. Beautiful!

    JSB, I'm sure Bish has one of those!

    :D

    Ok here are the ones I like -

    This because of the finish and general AWE of the kit -

    This because if I could have any kit it would be this! -

    This because I think for me it is the perfect setup (for my needs, and its a SPAUN kit!) -

    It wouldn't suprise me if Bish has got one, he has some of the nicest kits around.`

    Awesome choices Alex, I love the SJC kit too, I am a big fan of the custom companies.

    On that note I am going to the Jobeky UK Custom drum show in May which is in Stafford. 2 big rooms, 1 with all the best UK custom drum companies displaying what they have and another room for masterclasses and demos - can't wait.

    Anyone else got some pics?

    Love all of those xweasel and I would love to own any, but I have to say that the finish on the Orion is my favourite by a slight margin... it is just stunning.

    by the way are the masters yours?

    They are basically a drum and a microphone in one, to quote Yamaha:

    "Subkick is a low-frequency capture device that picks up the low frequencies from your drum set that a usual microphone can't. When used in conjunction with a standard internal mic, your bass drum produces a jaw-dropping bottom end like you've never heard before."

    Cool eh?

    Yeah, the Sub Kicks are basically a reverse speaker. I saw a thread somewhere else about DIY Sub Kicks. I have played with one and besides looking like some sort of weird parasite drum, they sound awesome!
