How huge is that bass?????????
How do you reach the china's behind you??

Kick is 20" deep x26 (diam)....it's so awesome, I just love that drum size (I have another one in Sable Black with long lugs too...pic below).
The china's are actually pretty close to me, and kinda boomed in.
I can play them from behind too for things like suspended rolls--they sound pretty cool that way.
They are (custom ordered size) 21" AAX chinas w/rivets.
Boomed in kinda like this, but not
as much these days...but I won't rule out changing back to boomed like this sometime.
They are also quite a bit lower now.
The china's in this pic were pretty high, and I raised my hands a little to roll on the bottom from the back.
The hat side one I can raise my hand and play patterns on if I want, it's pretty close, but I can still raise my arm higher, and not hit it (since it's moved back a bit) if I want to get all Tommy Aldridge about it.
Yeah, that gong is cool....I like using it, the band likes it, and people don't know what to say when you set it up at a show, & that's fun too!
People don't really know what to make of the 2 china's either, so it's always fun to set the kit up.
Thanks for the nice words!
