I have this 6 x 14 Padauk and Jatoba stave snare drum in transit. Not sure who the manufacturer is. The price was too good to pass up, so I took a chance on it. I really love my 6x14 Walnut stave from Salem Street drums, and wanted another stave shell snare.

I also received this really nice 20" Paiste Signature Rough ride. This is a really eclectic sounding ride, lower pitched than your typical Signature ride, some trash and a clear stick sound. The bell is really cutting. It is crashable as well.

They look like my Legacy hats, I bet they sound similar.

I played a crash of doom for the 2nd time the other night and decided that I was going to get one. I ordered one today.

The local was selling rocnsoc's really cheap, so I went and got one for live use. It's a spindle type, so now I own the spindle one and the gas lift. I think the spindle feels better, should have gotten that one first time around (how was I to know?).

Also some Gavin Harrison tuning keys and a gibraltar "click" bass drum patch which they were clearing.

Looks like Sabian tends to do a marketing thing by changing names and models frequently.

They look like and feel like a Manhattan HHX too.

Good snag on the Recording Customs. I'm a big Yamaha fan. I've never liked the color black on a set, but I make exception for Recording Customs. Somehow that great Yamaha chrome just really pops on a black lacquer shell. I'm envious.

Aw yeah, that's the stuff! Sabian's Artisans are my favourite line they make.

I just picked up a 14" set of Meinl Byzance Extra Dry Medium hats today, and my god, they are absolutely superb.
 
I picked up this used 16" A the other day. It reminds me of a 16 Med thin that I had for more than 20 yr. I think that's why I bought it. It doesn't sound fantastic or anything, but it's so familiar because that sound was on my kit for so long. I've also made a deal on getting back a 1988 Yam. tour custom 6 1/2 X 14 snare, that I got new with the kit, but sold it a few yr. later. I tracked it down, and the owner is willing to trade it for my OCDP ash 6 1\2 X 14. He said he wouldn't sell it, but he would trade for another snare. I'll post pics when it happens.

I picked up a "new" old stock 5 piece set of Ludwig Keystone's in blue glass glitter. It had the vibra-band mounts on it, but I replaced those with the ATLAS mounts. It was a pretty sweet deal, about $800 less than the current pricing. Plus, I wanted them in blue, which isn't available anymore from what I can tell.
 
I recently got a $1000 Red Rock Fijian mahogany stave snare for $200! Bargain! Beautiful sound, but what really got me was it's the lightest drum I've ever come across. Literally like carrying a feather. I couldn't believe it. My Ludwig supra phonic is now permanently on my practice kit...well, nearly.

Its all about portability, lightness and compactness for me these days. Less and lighter/smaller is more.

Amazing snare with one of those fancy three way snare throw off thingies.

Never been a gear head in the least and haven't much cared about what I play on as long as it's decent, cymbals a different story though, but this snare! Oh man. Love it. My wife is jealous of it.
