Hey, Benadrian. Beautiful kit. Is that a Corona I see?

What sizes? Is that a 20" kick?

Yeah, the singer brought Corona.

The drums are 16" x 20", 8" x 12", and 14" x 14". I also have a 8" x 10" that goes largely unused. Oh, and the acrolite snare.

Thanks! I've never been happier with a kit.

Hi Ludwig Fans, Just introducing myself and sharing one of my Ludwig sets that I have played for the last 40 yrs. This is a '69 champange clear 3ply, 5pc Buddy Rich sizes 22. 13. 16. 16. 14x5 snare, original Hwd, stands + speedking pedal . I also have a 14x14 floor and a 12x8 tom. I haven't played a better sounding set and I've played a lot over the years. Infact they are sounding better with age! Hope you dig em.

I just sold that kit, and no indoor shots. But yes, it's very dark unless under lights.

14x26, 11x13, 16x16 & 16x18"... almost a Bonham kit.
