^^^^ those red accents gaskets look amazing on the black finish. That must have been a Europe only option. I never saw that in the states.
Those are sweet looking shells! What's the ply count? Are they the same as the old MMX shells?

I'm waiting on a Chad Smith signature snare. Anyone have experience with this model? I read he had no influence on the design.
I play:
Drums & Hardware: DW.
Cymbals: Paiste.
Heads: Evans.
Sticks: Vic Firth and Pro Mark 5A, 7A.
I have a couple of other Pearl kits as well.
Last of the World Series in Clear Matte Lacquer & a BLX in Sequoia Red.

I moved back to pearl for a 2nd kit this year. A pearl session studio select. Absolutely incredible kit. Tone and punch is just all there in these!
I just bought my first drum set. Pearl.
I gave up on their forum...couldn't get "accepted"
Oh well
Cool orange Pearl fiberglass kit at rehearsal space. Nice CB-700 (Pearl made) snare drum too.
