Haha, spotted the Cog sticker on that mic stand... nice to see the boys left their mark on the place.

Congrats on working with Sylvia - the album is going to sound awesome!


Thanks for the compliment MrBling - how's the 2002 crash going?
 
hhm i dont know just been playing it not quite right for me aalthough i recon it will work for my band. on my own it dosent open up quick enough.
 
right now ive changed my mind. jsut cleaned it, a first for me. and just this one cymbal sounds so much better. still not as rapid as i would like but muuch better now for band practice saturday before my final descision
 
It's hard to get a good POV from the seat due to being very close to the corner of a room and with a cell phone but you get the idea. Pics of my old setup are down the page a bit, I didn't feel it was condusive to how I want to play and I felt I was getting a little stagnant.

Now it's more of a true 3/1 as opposed to what I was calling 2.5/1.5 (Same sized toms on the second and third but the third has a different resonant head, tuned lower and placed by the floor tom), I think it's working.

Heh, I just noticed, my 18 inch B8 China now always sits with the B8 logo closest to me. It's bent on one side and the weight distribution is off now...it doesn't really matter too much to me that it's bent I suppose, it's a china, I figure it will just sound trashier.
 
Some of you guys' kits are just hilarious. Wow those things are monsters! Here's my little guy.

Pulse 12/14/16 toms, Rockland(?) 10" tom: Aquarian Performance II heads
Pulse 22" kick: Aquarian Super Kick II head
Ludwig Acrolite 1976 snare: Aquarian Hi-Energy head

Paiste 18" Alpha medium crash
Paiste 20" Alpha full ride
Paiste 14" Alpha medium hats
Sabian AAXplosion 18" fast crash
Wuhan 16" china

Vex double pedals (PITA to adjust, some bad design elements, but play well)
Pair of Vic Firth NOVA 5B's.

Hey guys, first post in this forum, so please be kind!

This is my extremely budget, very well loved and used kit. It started life as a POS Yamaha Rydeen 5-peice but has had a Gibraltar rack, two Mapex M Birch toms, some Yamaha double kicks that used to be top of the range but aren't made anymore that I got second hand and a bunch of cymbals, some of which are so vintage they have 'Made in West Germany' on the underside.
I still have Paiste 101 hihats because I'm a peasant, Stagg 6" bell, vintage (circa 1980 or so) Zildjian Constantinople 17" crash, Meinl MB10 heavy crash, Paiste PST3 10" splash, Paiste Colorsound 20" ride and 18" china, Wuhan 16" thin crash and Meinl Classics 12" splash.

My kit is my fingerprint, I just hope i'll be able to afford a better fingerprint some time soon!

Let me know what you think, thanks!
