^I must admit, this snare is perfect, it can be ringy if you hit it hard enough, or it can not be ringy when you play normally in the center^

Now let me just upload that video next...

Sweet, the vision is amazing, especially in clear birch.

NICE!!!! I can't get over how much they look like my Platinum Mist BRX.

Love those cymbals too. I have a ZHT Flat Ride.

Seeing it set up makes me want to sell my kit and pick up Vision/ZHT kit like yours.

I highly recommend the snare. It is great and requires absolutely no muffling!

It is difficult to match the grain (color) of a natural finish. How does it match in person? It is hard to tell in the pictures.

They match perfectly all of the shells are of the same color, the grain differs but the color matches.

the grain would vary slightly on any drum woudn't it?


but the color matching is a totally different thing.

beautiful kit..........I noticed some copper piping in your pictures and if the humidity is up the cold water side will sweat and really raise the humidity level . cover the cold water ,or both with foam pipe wrap, its cheap and it will help keep things in tune. this may be irrelevant

That Looks Like A Carrier 90+ Furnace. Make Sure To Keep The Filters Changed And Keep That A-coil Clean. If You Get Water Running Around In A Few Years, It's Probably A Clogged Drain In Your Condensate Pan. Don't Call The Pros. You Can Fix That Yourself.. Remember: A Clean A-coil Is A Happy A-coil. Sweet Drums Too

Great kit. I have ZHT cymbals, too. Or I had ZHT cymbals but I've just moved into my college dorm and I couldn't exactly take my kit with me.
