So today I picked up my new (to me) C&C kit!! It's a custom maple kit (from around 2006-2007 I think) with a turquoise sparkle w/ white sparkle stripe wrap. Sizes are
24x16" Bass drum
14x6.5" Snare
13x9" Tom
16x14" Floor Tom
I absolutely LOVE the sound of this kit (never owned a maple kit before) and the sizes offer a nice contrast to my Warlord Masai Kit.
Buying this kit was a neat experence for me as it was previously owned by my drum instructor. I had ample opportunity to play them as well as mess around with the tuning not to mention hear him play them, giving me an opportunity to listen to the it from somewhere other than behind the kit. With this kit I actually bought it off of how it sounded, not how it looked (I realize the finish isn't for everyone but I love it!) and not because a favourite drummer plays this brand. So when he asked me if I wanted to buy it, it was a no brainer!! He also threw in cases for it too!!
I eventually would like to pick up a matching 18" floor tom, and I've already ordered parts to mount my ride cymbal off the bass drum via a Ludwig Atlas mount. I'd lalso like to switch my hardware to the "Classic" Ludwig stuff too!
Pictures will be up on Thursday!! Sorry to be a tease.
