I'm pretty sure NR means just put the 12" tom on a separate snare stand vs a tom mount. 'Course you'd wanna make sure it tightens down to 12".

The person above me is named "rick" and apparently he's a "drummer".
What a good son to give your dad such a nice gift. I'm sure he'll be blown away by it.
Should tell him you're paying for it with your inheritance :bigrin:
The caffeinated kind. :doh:
No seriously, I'm into the Keurig nowadays. Either the Newman's Own or the Caribou Blend. Anything dark and robust. I use the medium setting and it fills my 11oz cup...
That was a fun watch, and I think that's a great tune to close with, Bridie. Good job! I was thinking "Wondering if that kid's wearing ear protection" but then it looked to me like you pulled out...
^^^ Schweeet. Love the gold color, Z. Aesthetically, I also like the looks of the single cutouts vs the doubles.
Thanks, PB. Well, it had to match the drapes so, there you go... :)
No, I...
Yeah, I think that pic's got a classic 70's vibe and I can see where you'd get the Cap'n from. That's actually my baby brother. He was Andrew Jackson (I think) in a school play that day. I'm the dark...
Nice pic, Rick.
I guess the "vintage" nature of the photo reminds me of something - my wife and I go to Cracker Barrel for breakfast every Saturday when we're out doing our errands. I've sat there...
That was cute. A good read. Thanks for sharing that.
I really think it's hardwired in our DNA. Something in our genes originating from our ancestral hunter-gatherer days.
I'm liking it a lot. I played bass in jazz band and at church as a kid, had an old Kent violin-style bass that I carted everywhere in a vinyl gig bag. I was semi-decent but it was not my main...

As a new drummer myself, I figured I'd throw in my 2 cents:
I think it's definitely better to go with fewer, nicer things than a lot of cheap stuff because for one, you won't be happy (for long)...
Saludas are generally custom. They may keep a small inventory on hand, but my impression is that for the most part, Jamie (owner) makes them as he receives orders. I've ordered a few and they...
Welcome, Joe. Definitely no need to buy a second stand just to mount a splash. Now if you're planning to add more cymbals down the road, then yeah, I can see the rationale. Also, you might do a bit...
I suspect I'm in the minority on this, and that is most definitely one of the most stunning finishes I have seen on a Saturn (and the photography itself is outstanding) but I have to admit I kinda...
Looking good, Cab. I don't know, I think if you got rid of some of that unnecessary furniture, it's fine right where it is now. :)
Re-reading, I see it's the snares you were tightening vs the head. Yeah, I think that can damage as well. Not to be crass, but is this a cheaper or pricier drum? My first snare was an entry-level...
First, welcome to the forum. Second, there are no stupid questions here.
I've had fairly decent success using moongels, strategically placed around the batter side of my snare. They are cheap,...
Pulled the trigger tonight and ordered a Gretsch G5420T in Aspen Green. Finally succumbed to the gas I've been feeling all week. This'll be my first guitar in 35 years. I can already feel the pain...
Definitely creating an "other-worldly" vibe. Very cool, Shane.
I almost get as fired up anticipating new hardware as I do new drums or cymbals. Enjoy your new toys!
I cannot speak to the Yamaha, but I have a set of Saturn IV's in that exact configuration. Nothing about them I do not like. I did replace the Remo heads w/ some Evans that I had recently purchased...
Sounds exactly like the Sabian AAX-Plosion 18" crash to me.
There's an option I'd be inclined to seriously consider if this situation is starting to leave a bad taste in your mouth. Just start from scratch. (Did I hear "Saturn"? :icon_mrgreen:)
I had the opportunity to work out the new ATH-M50s on my kit and was able to conduct a reasonable comparison to the older, less-expensive Aiwa HP-CN6s. The M50s, being of the over-the-ear type (vs...
