It's a great pedal once I figured out what I needed to do to make it feel like what I like. Once I shortened the length where the pedal linkage pulled on the beater, and lengthened the footboard, I made it feel just like my DW5000
The look is very space-age too
Signets now? - they sound nice just wish Ludwig had chosen a wider selection of wraps.
Are there any parts for the gong in the Steely Dan cover band? I think in the intro of 'Josie' you could use it eh?
Thank you! Based on that I'll order one. While we have a FLMS, they don't have a very good drum/percussion selection at all, so trying one in person is right out.
Sorry i didnt read all the replies,but how much does a gong stand set you back??
A gong would sound great in a smoky jazz tune.
Bo how big is that gong?
I am green with envy, I want one someday. A bigass one. There's something about the sound of a gong that satisfies something deep down inside me.
It would make for a really fast sled too I bet.
Oh that's right, you don't get snow in Southern California.
The shop I got them from they used them once for a clinic and sold them at a "used" price. It worked out 😃
Because gong.
This is definitely the best reason to get a gong.
(See also 'I just got new drums... because drums!'
etc. )
Ah, cool. Same as I got my Saturns. The shop owner played one show with them so I got them for $999 for the 5 piece shells. Gotta love a deal.
This is an old inside joke here, but whenever you set up your Saturns, are your badges facing outward? Badges must always be facing outward at all times. And you must shame others for not playing Saturns or saying anything slightly derogatory about Saturns too
Then you will be truly Saturn Man.
I get the joke, been hanging around longer than I've been registered. Not sure if mine face out or not, let me go see.......
Yes! They do face outward (except the kick, of course). Not necessarily straight forward, but definitely outward. Even so, I don't think I qualify for the name "Saturn Man", nor do I think I'd really want to.
Wouldn't wind chimes be easier to transport?
