Be it ever so humble, there's no place like sitting at your OWN kit. :)
 
I was inspired sort of by Mike Mangini. And the reason why i have no rack toms is because i was tired of having a four piece and the toms are so deep they look ridiculous if they are mounted in the bass drum. I also just liked the way this set-up looks.
 
Pretty old pictures ! LOL !!!!

Look cool, humble means nothing as long as you have fun playing it !

BTW,from your member's name, are you french speaking ?
 
Welcome to the Virgin Bass Drum club! Glad to have you here.

Too bad you decided to go with Zil's, Paiste is so much better.

-End shameless brand-pushing-
 
Nice kit! It does have a nice clean look to it and looks fun to play!



On a side note, those pics have pretty good resolution for being taken in 1970! Haha!
 
I decided on Zildjians because at the guitar center i got them at they sounded better than the paiste's.
About the 1970 thing: my camera is stupid because it won't remember the date so i get pictures from 1970 :p
And no i do not speak french but i just thought Monsieur sounded cool.
 
Great kit! rack tom are over-rated anyways! (I have 3 lol)

The 12" & 13" toms are pretty deep, how do they tune up?

Nice looking set! I like how everything is low. The drummer is the most visually exciting person to watch, yet they often hide behind a wall of drums and cymbals; you only know they're there when the crash cymbal moves. Your set is low and flat and will showcase you well. I also appreciate how you put several things on a single stand, avoiding the "forest of stands" effect.

I only play with A Customs myself and I love them. Go for it.
