Thank you! I wasn't quite sure what the correct termonolgy for the part was, so I had some trouble finding it before. This helps a bunch!

Hey everyone! I ran into a problem today while cleaning my drums. I noticed that the ball-style mount of the high tom on my Ludwig Accent CS Customs was falling apart. I'm fairly certain that this...
I feel that it is the one part of my kit that I'm not happy with. It just doesn't feel the way I want, if that makes sense. I'm not knocking the pedals, I mean they've served me well over the past 3...
I have Xs20 hats. I have no problem with them at all. There is nothing particularly amazing about their sound. But they sound good and get the job done. They get my vote for best mid-level cymbals....
Hey guys!
I have a sort of question/situation that some of you may be able to help me with. After the years of slowly acquiring nicer drums/cymbals, and after my most recent buy of my Sabian 19"...
No worries! No question is a dumb question. I am super jealous of that crash though. Maybe you should ship it to me so I can take a look and see if it really is a RawBell Crash. :shifty:

As far as I know, all Xplosion crashes have a raw bell. Is it actually marked "Raw Bell" on the cymbal, or did you just notice that it has an unlathed bell and described it as a "Raw Bell Crash"?...
The 16" Zildjian K Dark Crash on my school's set is one of the best sounding cymbals I've ever played. It is so responsive. It's like the cymbal knows the exact sound I want every time I hit it, and...
Yeah I can see where you're coming from with that. It's not as much about the pitch for me as the weight. Pitch is just the word I came up with. I can play with whatever sticks I have available, I...
Oh boy. From humble beginnings doesn't even begin to describe my drumming career.
Age 1-10: Banging pots and pans, the occasional drumset my mother would let me near:

That's make primarily makes me do it. Playing with one old, semi-chipped stick and one new one would just bug me, so I choose to do this so the sticks age the same (hopefully). Think of it as tire...
Well, that's fine, I'd just go back to using pair one after the song once I have a chance to pick it up. I wouldn't say it's a very important thing, I just like using one pair at a time, usually. I...
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone did the same thing I do whenever I buy a couple new pairs of sticks. By label, I mean mark each pair separately, like so:

Thank you! I should say that I've been playing stuff like A Day to Remember for awhile now, but nothing near this heavy. My chops are still slightly lacking, although you saying my hands are accurate...
Hey everyone! I just got my 19" Sabian AAXtreme china in the mail, so I figured I would christen it with some metal. :punk: I realize this might not be everyone's personal favorite genre, but if...
Ooh I'm loving the 14" to be honest. Great amount of trashiness. Thanks for putting it up. Now I want one of those, too! :drumset-3:
Thanks! Coming up on my eventual purchase list is a mini china. I've been considering the 12" AAX, but the 14" HHX sounds pretty amazing to my ears as well. Do you feel like the 12" has enough punch...
It's here! Actually shipped out on Wednesday, and arrived today. Said 5-6 days for shipping, and it took one. That was a nice surprise!
Anyway, to prove it happened, here are the pics!

Hey everyone! I thought I would share my overwhelming excitement with you! As of half an hour ago, I pulled the trigger on a Sabian AAXtreme 19" China. This is the first "Pro" cymbal I will own,...
These have my vote as well. I've been using mine for over a year and absolutely love how they sound.

Took me a solid 30 seconds of looking to figure out how you had the double pedals laid out. Nice! :drumset-3:
I've got sort of a weird combo at the moment. I've always jammed to some light rock/alternative, but it got to a point where it just wasn't challenging anymore, so I started playing heavier...
I agree that video makes it look bad. But i feel its a bad representation because i rarey play that loud, and i was beating it up because its already basically destroyed. I've cracked two wuhans in...
True, they do sound great, and my friend just got one with rivets which sounds pretty cool. I just don't feel like paying $50 every 2 years if they keep breaking :/
Ooh I've finally got an awesome one for this! This was taken at a school jazz band performance at a basketball game.
Not entirely sure how the photographer managed it...I was busy playing drums....
