Show Off Your DW Kit

What can you tell us about your drum rug?

Do you have photos of your kit set up with your rack? I have been thinking about a DW rack more and more lately.
 
Hi Up2speed

It´s a Rockbag rug. It´s a nice one.
I will shoot new photos, and will be posted. :)
Yep, DW Racks are as solid and versatile as you could expect. Really amazing stuff.

Anybody have pics of the Black Ice finish?
Im looking at getting that colour, but havent seen many 'real world' shots of it.

Anyone?

It's not as "sparkly" as you would think...

Nice! Thank you... Actually I like the subtle sparkle
This is my black ice kit. It's not an impressive finish. It's rather dull and is a warm black with a green hue.
Comparatively, my local drum shop has a Galaxy sparkle kit.
It's still in the black family but the finish is much deeper and looks more expensive.

Black Galaxy finish ply has larger sparkle flakes with more variation. Looks more expensive in person.

I agree with your opinion on the black ice finish. It is not impressive...My local shop has a black ice kit that has been on the showroom floor since 2007. That is a finish you would want to see in person before purchasing to be sure you like it. It's not ugly by any means though.

What prompted your decision to go with black ice?

I bought it used because the specs were perfect for my preferences. I needed a kit to play out with to take some abuse while I keep my exotic kit all safe and showroom shiny.

That's the advantage of Black Ice, it can take a bit of beating while remaining glorious under the lights.

Hell yea Gus, you really have to keep those olive ash burl pics coming. Such a dynamic wood grain!

:-D Thanks Jeff.

It´s a deal. I will carry my Nikon next time instead the phone, and will catch better pics.

This is my one of a kind DW Prototype Oak Stave kit!
Sounds huge, is quite heavy, but oh, so cool!
The hoops on the bass drum is maple.
It's very cool that the shells are scoped out, the re-rings are a part of the shells!
