Why does it look like Scorch Whammin has a snare attached to the front of his bass drum? I know it's not that but what is it?
 
That Oak Custom kit is gorgeous! Superb set-up/finish/snares/etc.

Could you list the sizes?

Thanks!
Im very fond of them =).

The depths of the toms i am not positive about. From left to right:

1968 14" Ludwig Super sensitive
Tama 8" timbalito (spelling?) tuned fairly high.
8" Yamaha Oak tom
10" Yamaha Oak tom
12" Yamaha Oak tom
Floor toms:
13" Yamaha Oak
14" Yamaha Oak
Bass drum:
20" x 17" (i think) Yamaha Oak
Main snare:
A modern Slingerland wood snare.... i think from the 90's...... i got damn lucky with the finish.

i do not muffle any of my drums (including the bass).

if you have any other questions, feel free =).

That's awesome, man! I've got a similar thing going on without an 8" tom (10, 12, 14, 16, 20) on my Stage Custom. I love yours though. Probably sounds killer. 13" floor toms are so much fun too.

Here is my Stage Custom Birch kit that I purchased in October 2011.

Here's another angle of them set up on the riser I built a few weeks ago. (A black skirt is in the works)

And finally a shot of the drums and the drummer in action. Bangin' out that surf beat on the 16" tom.

I go back and forth between the matching Stage Custom snare and the Chad Smith snare. The stage Custom snare has a warmer tone but the Chad Smith is a lot louder.
