Cool :) I actually really don't like that China. It doesn't feel loud enough, it's weird. I'm thinking about replacing it with a different China or maybe another trashy effect like an O-Zone.

Good news being, I recently had a masssssssive attack of G.A.S seemed like a week for drum bargains.
First off, I managed to trade up - sold most of (hi hats, crash, ride, china and one of the...
I played gigs reasonably soon after breaking my finger. Not like right after though. I'm convinced it wasn't set quite straight either, it's never felt the same since.
We've got another cover up on youtube, i'd love it if you could check it out and let me know what you think. Cheers!

It seems to me that your post was in response to my post about being careful, and marko138's post about proceeding with caution. We don't know all the facts, so while mine and marko138's opinion was...
This is (/will be) your first gig?
I'm becoming a proper negative influence in this thread but I really think you shouldn't do it. If you're genuinely seeking to impress this record company I...
So unless you're signing anything, just gung-ho full steam into it regardless of the consequences? Brilliant.

WHAT!!!???
Care to elaborate on this comment? That's seriously stupid advice.
Everything you do as a band should be done with your eyes as open as they can be to what's going on. I'm not...
You've got to ask why you've been asked to play if you only have one song. Is it a record label worth getting involved with or are they just looking for some suckers to poach fans from, and make...
Black stains so you can see the wood grain are so prettyful.
Good plan...
When they get to 10k followers, they're giving away an entire kit.
Well, I've had a good shot of this drum today, I'm incredibly pleased with it. It just makes an immense sound, it's everything i'd hope for in a snare. It's really very responsive too. I don't think...
I'm not going to get a chance to really play it till Monday. The only time I can play drums is during the week between 12-6pm, otherwise i'm disturbing neighbours. I'll report back when i've given it...
It's a Remo head. Like I said, the sound from it's fine, it's really nice. I really don't like that it's off white, and the rest of the snare is pure snow. Clearly a lot of the appeal of this snare...
It's a Birch snare. Crush is a pretty new company. Right now i'm wondering how many Crush drums there are in the UK. 'Cause surely there can't be that many.
The lugs are metal, the plastic bits...
So, anyone who has Crush Drums and Percussion added on facebook, may have noticed that they have been doing facebook giveaway competitions.
A couple of weeks ago they did the first of these...
I bought a set of Evans G2 Coated heads pretty much on the strength of Cobus's youtube videos, they sound absolutely brilliant on my Gretsch with no dampening whatsoever. On my Pearl with it's stock...
I play with a 20" kick and I like my ride pretty low and I don't have a problem with a standard boom. If I was getting a full new set of stands i'd get the lower boom displayed in this thread, but...
Buy better heads, ditch the muffling completely.
Surely, it only saves at most, a couple of inches? I can't see that being really particularly useful. Fair enough it saves money and weight, but it only saves money if you were buying the stand...
Yup! and the thing hanging from the splash is a sheep my flatmate brought back from New Zealand :icon_surprised:
I just did the design myself based on the outline of the rabbit we used for the...
I love that Pearl. Actually love it. If you described that look to me without seeing it i'd probably say that'd never work, but it totally does.
Anyway, I has two new additions to my kit. The...
A lot of work, a HUGE amount of help from friends and family and a good scattering of luck, but it's a huge amount of fun!
Prepare for more confusion, as we have released our studio diary video! It's more like a studio video mashup than a diary though. Not very informative, just fun:
