Well, as promised, here are the pics of my new gear.

1.) Pearl Eliminator Belt Drive Double Pedal: sooooooo sick!!!! i recommend this pedal to anyone, hands down best i've ever played. As you can see I'm using the red cams, and they feel great if you play heel up. I prefer to use IC felt beaters instead of the Pearl ones that came with it, I like the feel of the lighter beaters.

2.) Pearl S-2000 Snare Stand: Um let's see... simply amazing. Best piece of hardware Pearl has ever created, hands down!!! Love the new basket design with the adjustable arms, as you can see I use it for my 10" popcorn snare which I cant do with a regular snare stand. GET IT!!!

3.) Protection Racket Drum Bags: WOWWWW!!!! Very thickly padded with sheep skin-like lining, heavy duty handles and zippers. You could drop these bags from the roof with the drums in them and they would be safe and sound. Incredible bags, wouldn't trust any other kind of soft case. I just got bags for my "travel" version of my kit, which is a 5-piece, consisting of 10 14 and 16 toms with a 22 bass.

I also threw in some pics of my "newest" setup. I tried to bring everything closer together to make it more comfortable to me, such as lowering the crashes, moving the floor toms closer to the bass drum, and moving the hi hat closer. Everything's feeling great on the kit now. Enjoy the driver seat pics as well!!!! (sorry couldn't fit the whole thing in the frame in those...)

Looks stunning mate, I'm so envious of that snare stand, I'm really annoyed at my 800 series one.

By the way, what are the specs of your auxilliary snare?

What happened to the snare you had mounted from the rack? Is that the one on your new stand? New gear is allways a treat!! Congrads dude!!! :D
Oh; I just looked at the older picts and that is the snare you had mounted on the rack. I liked that because the left side of my kit is crowded!! :rolleyes:
Congrads again!!! :D :rolleyes:

thanks man!! it's a 10x6 Pearl maple popcorn snare. Has nice pop to it, very good aux. snare. The stand is just amazing, I cant stand my 800 series one either, so i'm thinking of getting one for my main snare too. but i definetely suggest getting it!!

Nice new gear, and nice kit you have there. I like that white masterworks reso, where did you get it?

One thing i don't like is the remO's on your toms. But if ya like the sound they make then by all means keep 'em there. Cuz your kit is your sound...

cheers jaxon

Thanks for the comment! I got the head from a guy who played a masterworks and for some reason had extra reso's layin around cuz he didnt use them on his masterworks. I like the muffled sound I get out of the toms with the remO's on them, in my opinion they're too ringy for my style of playing without them on.

thanks!!!

well belive it or not i've got more gear. The other day was my 18th b-day, so my mom took me to Dale's Drum Shop in Harrisburg, PA and she got me a protection racket hardware bag and deluxe cymbal bag. I also got some B-1000 cymbal stands too. Then the day after my band had our first gig, and then a week later we played two more gigs!!! what a b-day... anyway just thought i'd share!!!
