38 and a HALF!!!

Thanks man! It's a lot of fun even if I mostly just set up as a four-piece, lol.

The current specs (as seen in the photo) are,
14x6.5 Aluminum Sensitone w/Angel Hoops
22x16 kick with new Reference series spurs installed
10x7 tom w/aluminum Optimount
16x16 floor tom ( both tom and floor have FatTone hoops and stainless steel tension rods

The cymbals are (from left to right),
15" K Sweet over
15" K Custom Special Dry
22" K Light Custom EFX
8" FX Stacker
38.5" (24" actual) K Light ride
22" K Custom Special Dry crash

I've since replaced the top hat with Zildjian's new Concept Shop 15" Rib Hat, moved the BFSD White Copper Bling Ring to the K Light EFX, and swapped the 22" K Dry crash out for a 22" Avedis.

I'll follow !

Nice! Fisheye lens getting ALL those drums in the shot! Bird-fish-eye-view!

Sticks! Wouldn't be a bird's eye view thread without your stunning collection. Love that barn!

Charlie, I love that Premier Elite concert tom kit! So Very cool! Reminds me of the Ludwig Octoplus kits I use to drool over in the early 80's.
