Will Omar Hakin be using Reference series while on tour?

[isaacledley]

So ive decided Im gonna go to see Omar Hakin play at the Australian Drummer weekend. Id love to see him play reference, but will he have them? I saw him on the promo video with the blue ones...was that just for advertising purposes, or is he playing Reference now?


Thanks to anyone who can actually answer my question.

[isaacledley]

I'd like to hope so. Thanks for the input guys.

I just went to his clinic 2 days ago, and it was amazing! Yeah he uses reference drums and they sound really really good. I think it was a root beer fade kit. And just to let you know he cut his finger with a cymbal and blood went all over the drums...
