I love old vintage Premier's. I still have my 60's era kit. Check the floor tom, they're usually 16x15 rather than 16x16. Are they the 3ply shells? It wouldn't let me enlarge the pics, but I didn't...

I have a friend who was an "endorser" (endorsee?) of Spaun, and couldn't rave enough about them. Not sure what he was raving about though, they seemed fairly run-of-the-mill to me: other than the...

Well, I can fully add Mirkko to this thread - I met him for the first time at his show in London on Sunday, and it was an absolute pleasure to. Great fun day roadie'ing for him, and a joy to watch...

Gary, thanks for taking the time to post on the forum. Good of you to do so, hopefully other artists will follow suit! Same wishes to you!

Exactly what I was gonna say!

It is, and it is

Welcome back Akahito ;) Sorry to hear of the disaster, but nice to see what rose from the ashes - she's a beauty.

Well, we were jamming out some Metallica tunes, and I was suffering from a severe lack of hardware - so I ended up swapping out the ride that was originally there for the china (as, well, we were...

But old rehearsal-room Exports still do the business! Played on these old tubs on Sunday in a jam session - the left kick possibly predates my existence, and the right side is all 90's era.

Could...

Holy dogdoo, MVP!

808 drop. Every time.

Hopefully that will change - I always try to catch him when he's doing a clinic tour. The last two at PMT Romford have been superb: he makes them very engaging and interesting, not just for...

Ya'll need to get to a Craig Blundell Roland clinic to really see what triggers and modules can do these days. I love his clinics, both for learning new stuff I know nothing about (such as E drums)...

As I understand it, general rule of thumb is thin shell = thick hoops, and thick shell = thin hoops. The idea being that thicker hoops dry out the head, focussing the sound from the shell, and...

I just lost.....

Depends - if he's searching for the original Z series, then that's the one. If he's searching for the original Z Custom series, then it's one of these two. I don't remember which came first - the...

My Custom Classic. Such a versatile drum, sensitive, warm, but also incredible bite and attack. Sorry for the crap pic - I don't have any particularly recent ones
...

Well, can't say I didn't see it coming (for the same reasons RushDrums24 put across about Keough). Nicko's Drum One shop in Manchester pushes BDC a lot, and have a great relationship with Keith, and...

I'd rep you if that was an original series Z Custom china

I see where therocker is coming from with his comments re the splashes and the uprights. If it were me, I'd probably drop the RJ-50 down to below the two crossbars, trim even more off the uprights,...

Nice bit of pipe trimming there. Looks way better.

I like that position for the aux hats ever since I saw it on Chris Adlers kit. Kinda makes it a mirror of the left side - well, except for Chris...

I had three pairs at one point - standard left side hi hat stand, right side remote pedal, and a static/aux pair on the left of the main left hats too. Why? Because why not! I had the hardware and...

Third pair of hats (fixed) overlapping the ride above the right kick, mirroring the left side, would set it off for me

Awwwwwwwww yeeeeeeeeeaaaahhhhhhhhh. That's my kind of shiz

Wow, I had no idea he was playing there! I'd have definitely gone to that rather than the firework display I was at
