            I thought I was the only one having trouble seeing them. Photobucket just changed their policy and wiped out almost all of my PDF images.

                    I love that finish. I feel like guys like us are a dying breed - drummers who don't push their 2nd floor tom way out to the right. I don't find that comfortable or practical but I guess it looks cooler in pictures, having a wider kit with more floor tom exposed. Anyway, great kit!

                      I like to keep my second floor tom close, BUT I find that uncomfortable too. I was going to experiment with placement of the 2nd floor tom when I get my new tubs. On my last 2 kits, I noticed the stick marks on the 2nd floor tom batter were off-centered, much closer to the 1st floor tom. I think I'm uncomfortable with twisting my trunk that much. Maybe I can find a happy medium with the new set-up.

                          Totally agree.
                          In fact it's quite similar to my set up haha.
                          Very neat you should be super happy with all that gear! Looks sensational and I really want to hear you play it.
