kick, snare, and hat stuff.

[ZeusCaboose]

Hey I got really bored and decided to snap a few pictures. Also, to show you how my cymbals are coming along. So, post your kick, snare, and hat setups and talk about them. Amuse me.

What I'm using:

Gretsch Catalina Jazz 18" x 14" bass
Remo Fiberskyn 3 Fa over Stock with felt strips

Pearl Chad Smith Signature Snare 14" x 5"
Remo Coated Ambassador over Remo Ambassador Hazy

Dream 17" Hats
Contact (1340g) over Bliss (1130g)

Pearl 900 Series HiHat Stand (with DW clutch)
Pearl 900 Series Bass Drum Pedal (with DW medium felt beater)
Dixon Throne and Snare Stand

promark American Hickory 5a

Yeah, so it's a lot of want to just have fun with something simple like this. I want to be able to feel pocket and just that.

21" Legacy over 20" Light Ride for the lulz.
Also, no money for new snare head. Big deal, wanna fight about it?

ZeusCaboose that setup looks damn sweet, i'll get some pics of mine up tomorrow. Rep.

Awesome thread, I'll play.

Here's what I use for jamming and most genre's:

14x5" 1985 Ludwig Acrolite
Remo Coated Ambassador over Attack 'Snare Side Thin'

18x14" Gretsch Catalina Jazz
Stock Clear over Stock Coated. (Waiting on coated PS3)

14" Meinl Dark Hats.

Sonor 400 Series Hardware. Vic Firth 7A.



The second lot is much the same, but i use this for D'n'B/Dubstep/etc:

10x2" Sonor Jungle Snare W/Russ Miller Groove Wedge
Stock Single ply Coated over stock clear reso

11.25" Zildjian Constantinople/New Beat 'Sizzle' Hats.
Top hat is based on a Constantinople, bottom hat is essentially a vented New Beat with 4 rivets that sizzle out when played wide open. They're quite heavy hats for their size, but they project realllyyy well. And surprisingly have a fair bit of trash.

Same sticks/hardware/pedals. Sometimes I swap out the sonor pedal for my Eliminators if double pedal is needed.






Oh and, *highfive* Zeus. Matching kicks!

[ZeusCaboose]

I won't lie, I'd like to hear those 'sizzle' hats.

I love that gretsch kick....
actually, I pretty much love that setup in general: gold sparkle Gretsch kick, snare, HUGE hihats.
.....cool

[Frummer]

I play mostly Soul,hip-hop,Rnb stuff...think of The Roots and Questlove!

I'm getting a Zoom Q3 next week, I'm going to start doing a lot of recording, so I'll definitely do one of the sizzle hats.

Also, are my pictures ridiculously big for anyone else? I resized them when i posted them and they were all the same size. Now some seem to have...gotten...bigger....? Interesting.
