.....is the sound the bass drum makes!! Hey y'all (like my slang? ), im jus' chillin' in me crib (ok, i'll stop) here after collecting my ELX. Ruby fade OH YEAH!!! It looks so nice in person! 10000,000 times better than pictures can show.

Anyhoo, i brought it back and made it up (i made a fort with the empty boxes!), but i havent fully tuned it yet. I just got back from our family holiday and i am soo tired (the plane jouney was longer than planned due to turbulance and it took 1 1/2 hours just to get my ham and cheese toastie!! **$) so im going to go to bed before i complete the TUNEATION. Sorry there are no pictures atm, but my dads camerea is full so i have to wait til tomorrow to show you pics. Its a 22,16,13,12,14xwhatever the width of the snare is. i am getting some decent cymbals this week too as mine are piles of poo. they are paiste 302 hats, an 802 crash and some crazy ***** ride that is nameless that ive had for years and years. i will also get a new throne and an eliminator double pedal methinks.

sorry about the lack of photos, but had to tell you about my great new purchase!! mmmmmmmm *drools over elx*

sheesh, talk about worth the wait!

what camera are you using?!

[Chips-the-Drummer]

ive only just set it up, i havent even properly tuned the rack toms and the sound is still awesome. the bass drum has SO MUCH POWER. anyways, here are a couple more pics. they look crap, but thats the camera. also the colour looks really ugly in these pics.

Simply stunning! Ruby fade is beautiful, in my opinion. Congrats on the kit, man! Now lets see some boxes!

Open handed player eh? I can relate.

[Chips-the-Drummer]

thanks, i made a fort with my boxes but i cant show it because i had to tidy it away (**** parents!!) it wasnt that great though, it didnt hold me for long. BUT TALK ABOUT OVERWRAPPING. how much paper and stuff do pearl pack the things with. my mum had a fit when she can into our living room to find the floor a sea of brown paper, boxes, and bubble wrap. it was worht it though. these drums sound awesome!!!

[Chips-the-Drummer]

im not really an open handed player, just to let you know, but i do do it a lot because it is fun

[sim_lee17]

I know what people are talking about when they talk about the how the red goes to a dark red, rather than a black

[sim_lee17]

any chances of seeing it setup outside?!
