    Default My New Toys(Check it out)

    I just recently became the proud owner of.....

    10x7 DW Maple snare drum, and man I love this snare, sound so amazing.
    Also new is
    my 18" Zildjian A Custom Medium Thin Crash Cymbal AND possibly these beautiful almost new dw5000 dbl pedals(still in the works).


    Here are some pics of my new set-up, with the extra's(minus the pedal), this photo was taken from out last gig on the 5th of July.





    Doing what I love, playing drums and sweating like a pic.

    Cool pics and toys man. The 5000 is the same pedals I have and I really like them. I am considering the Tama beaters that you use, and in another thread asked about the DW Hardcore beaters as well. You have a great looking set up for sure!

    Well I already own the snare and cymbal, but I am trying out the pedals, to see if I like them(which I already know I will)and if I do, then I am going to trade them for my DW4000 and my acrolite snare drum.

    I don't know much about them either other than they are on the DW web site and they look light like the Tama beaters. Apparently they adjust from soft to hard with an allen screw. The hard plastic beater is screwed up in increments, Bish has one but stated he didn't think that it was much lighter than the standard DW type beater.

    Well man to be very honest, I really wasn't expecting a whole lot of change, but before I even had a chance to adjust or fool around with them, I played a gig with them, and several of our songs have some pretty killer dbl bass stuff happening, and these pedal made that job effortless, I seriously felt like I was doing nothing, like the pedals were playing themselves, they are so smooth, so responsive, and powerful it just floored me, so I would most certainly have to say, they made a world of difference, although I still like the 4000 and still think they are great pedals with the Tama beaters.
