I made my own sleeve for my hats out of automotive hose. I've been using the same piece for a few yrs now.
indiglo, dang that's quite the kit. I really like it a lot. Congrats man.
I had some old Grestch drums once and they were to big for most heads. I didn't keep them long, but I did keep the snare a long time. My local drum shop suggested a vintage head I think it was Remo,...
I use a Ludwig brass LM303 (import for Ludwig) Like late8 said about his BB It's got a lot of tone for a metal drum. It's got some warmth to it also. Not all sharp and bright. I use it with my...
That sounds like something you have to go for. Have fun.
There may be a lot of truth in that statement Rick. I think our sense of sight can alter what our sense of hearing perceives. It would be cool to do a blind fold test. We could record the kick with...
I've almost always had my toms on the kick. I have tried mounting them on stands a few times over the yrs. but it just seems right to have them on the kick. I recently got a new to me kit, and it...
Well there are a ton of them I like to play, and basically I'm a rocker. I Can Kick Your A$$ by Justin Moore, is a newer one. Almost anything by Brooks and Dunn. Honky Tonk Attitude by Joe Diffie...
the DWs are certainly an up grade from the Jrs. Congrats. I played the Jrs. for 7 yr. and up graded to the Speed Cobras. I'm sure you'll like the 9000s.
I've always used some sort of dampening, not a pillow though, it's too much. Recently I bought an Aquarian regulator reso, and I already had a PS3 on the batter side. It sounds really good with...
That's why I said some of the pros do it so who am I to argue.
I've never buried the beater. After 40 some yrs of playing heel up and letting the beater come back off the head, I don't think I can leave the beater on the head now. At least not with out it...
Mine is an 18" Paiste Sig. full crash. I've had it since 91.
Congrats on the IC. I've been a Tama pedal player since 1980 or so. I think all of them I've had were good. Camco, Pro-twin, IC 900 (which I still have) IC Jr.Dbl. , and the Speed Cobra Dbl. which I...
It took so long to sell my 13, 16, & 22 I thought I was gonna have to sell them separately, but they finally did sell. Other wise you'd have a 16. You were going to be contacted first if I made that...
I've always just played the hat with the kick on the first two notes. Then the next four notes were on the hat with a little sizzle on the fourth note.
You're a braver man than I . I did buy a car once with out telling her. That was crazy. Congrats on the new cymbals.
My kit came with pin stripes new. Long time ago. I used those for a while. Then I used coated ambassadors for many yrs. Lately, last several yrs. I've been using 2 ply heads. Coated G2s on the rack...
Congrats on your new K. I'm really liking mine. The 20" K ride sounds real nice with the country band I'm in right now. I'm using the K custom dark 17 also. Not sure about the 18" K med. thin dark. I...
In the 80s I read in Modern Drummer that the resos loose their tone or stretch out or something. Anyway, they were saying to replace them after a while. I take that to mean like one yr. Now do I do...
I've got a PP tractor style with threaded spindle. Several yrs old and never any squeaks or creeks. I'd take it back if you hear it at all. there's a lot of things you won't be able to hear on a gig,...
I had a BCAN kit and was using Supper 2 Aquarians on the 10 and 12, On the Fl. toms I had performance 2 heads.
Oh ya. I wanted the Japanese sun rise really bad. Now I see them and can't believe I liked them.
Nice kit but I'm surprised you gave up the Yamahas. Oh, I just realized those were SCB. You still have the MCAN kit don't you?
