Black Beauty and lm402 and lm400. Pork pie makes some nice inexpensive snares
I have met a few people who have been able to tell me the tempo of a song that we were listening too. I know a few people with perfect pitch, I kind of think that some are born with "perfect rhythm"...
I actually have the New Breed book. I think I always played with the click to fast to really fine tune my playing when practicing with it. I'm gonna try it at 70bpm or slower. I was frustrated with...
I have been playing piano for my whole life, I went to college for jazz guitar and have been playing drums for almost 2 years. I never really lose track of the tempo that much, besides switching...
Sooo, I notice that I never get off of the metronome as in loose the beat altogether, but I notice that I rush when I play and than I hear it and fall back rather than sitting in a pocket. My snare...
I would go with the audix dp7, thats what I settled with over the shure
I don't like the AKG D112, its too muffled for my taste, the Beta 52a is a nice in between, the Audix D6 is on the opposite...
I prefer ambassadors for my snares, but Emperors have a little more guts so i usually throw them on my toms. I find that Emperors are a little easier to tune and stay in tune longer. What style are...
Awesome, thanks for the info guys, I'm gonna clean it, try a Evans genera hd and a new ambassador on it, it has the mute inside, which is cool, but it makes it a little too unresponsive for my...

I picked up one of these today, it was dirt cheap, its kinda dirty, slight bit of rust around the lugs here and there, nothing bad.
Threw a new ambassador hazy on the snare side. Shell on the...
Jammed with James Brown. Tuned my kit a little. Sight read for about an hour. Good day. School semester is over for me. Time to practice up
I think you do lose a lot of feel when you use the click on straight quarter notes. But with it only on 2 and 4 or only on 4 or 1, it gives you a references while still forcing you to feel the in...
I'm a guitarist/pianist who is picking up drums. Recently I've realized how bad my sense of rhythm is. I'm not horrible or anything, but just not tight enough for a studio studio session, which is my...
I have a 10x18 room.
I've had
2 Tama Rockstars (not my thing)
Gretsch Catalina Club (kinda fun. I owned it)
Yamaha Stage Custom (sweeet)
Pearl Export (decent)
and my latest Ludwig Epic X Over...
look up how to build bass traps with owens corning.
oh and the other catalina is mahogany
I think both kits are birch.
Emperors and G2's here I come.
I currently have coated ambassador over ambassador snare side on these snares.
I have them well tuned. Not high pitched. I am not having overtone issues, they just sound brittle and lack warmth....
I'm a proud owner of the ludwig epic x over jazzette kit. Not quite the same, but the epic series is killer. I'm not even tempted to look at another kit, I love it so much.
I am happy with my kit and snare(ambassador on snare), but I play at some churches and some of the snares are just too bright and brittle without much warmth and guts. They are using Remo Ambassadors...
I got a bloody face by one of our rhythm guitarist headstock when he turned around at a gig.
My drummer once ended a set with a whole in his kick drum
Man, I got it, they forgot to ship the legs for the floor tom, a little piece for the rack tom, and my other kit with hardware and cymbals is at my friends house, so i cant really play them yet. But...
yep, I did stage crew for them at a gig a few years back. Not really my thing musically, but his drumming is killer, made it all worth it. Some great guys.
I have a gretsch catalina club jazz. I like the kick, but the snare sounds kinda cheap, the toms have a very limited tuning range.
My church has the a 6 piece catalina birch, the 12in rack tom...
