He certainly keeps us in the band on our toes:-)

Hey thanks for the tip. This is my second kit with a 26inch bass - the other one I got last year and have still never played it as I dont have cases for it! That one is a Premier series Gen X kit that was specially made for the Zutons drummer but it never got to him - I think he changed endorsements from Premier. So I got it - its really cool in a wicked safari wrap. But yeah back to the DW, it came with a DW bass drum pillow that is fixed to the inside of the shell with Velcro and touches both heads. I only managed to play around with it for 5 min when I got it but we have band practice tonight so im going in early to play around with tuning and see how it goes! In terms of sound, I know it might be a given due to the size of the bass drum, but I want the Bonham sound as it really works well with that size of bass drum. His bass drum was not as deep as mine though as mine is 18inches deep! Will see how I get on tonight:up:

Yeah the guy I play with, Son Henry, will kill me haha!

Hi all Right ive just taken delivery of my new kit - its a DW collectors series in a cool Oyster wrap finish. Its 13 inch by 6inch short stack tom with a 16inch by 13inch short stack hanging floor. But it has a huge 26inch bass drum! Tried it for a couple of minuets when i got it but ive yet to have a play with it. It came with a DW bass drum pillow which is handy. So any tips on how to tune such a massive bass drum?

Stuff for sale is as follows: 12 inch Premier Modern Classic snare 14inch Craivotto snare 14inch Zildjian A custom crash Axis single bass drum pedal Rock and Soc stool with back.

This is a joke! He is just very fast - does not make him the best.

I must admit DDrum are coming out with some nice stuff these days:up:

And yes it is the Keith Moon one lol:up:

Not sure I agree 100%. At the end of the day most drum makes make both low and high end gear so I agree if you just buy a Pearl drum kit for the sake of it being a Pearl its not guaranteed to sound good. On the other hand some brands such as "Brady" only make top line stuff and you are almost guaranteed a good sounding kit with badge in those cases. As in if you buy the Rolls Royce of kits, its going to do what it says on the tin and sound good. But even then if you tune a nice kit badly it will sound rubbish!

A to Z alterations on Bridge street right beside McCalls - my work uses them and they do a top job! Ive had one of my suits taken in by them as well:up:

Yeah I'm looking at something like a Brady. Or I might just get a total impulse buy and get the Limited Edition Premier "Spirit of Lily" kit:up: Big Premier fan. Just got a Craviotto snare this week which I have fallen in love with I must say.

Offers???????????

Not a huge fan of them to be honest - heard one in a shop once. They are well made etc but I don't like the wooden hoops they seem to put on every other kit these days.

Have you ever actually heard a Brady kit? If so how do they compare with normal Maple or Birch shells?

Good to know as I was looking at a DW kit but may get something else now.,

Got my 14inch Zildjian crash cymbal for sale in good condition - never really used it much so there is no key holing etc. Again going off on holiday soon so want to sell it. Asking 100.

Got a really nice Premier Modern Classic snare - 12inch by 7 inch. Really tight and fat. Got interest for a lot of the stuff Ive posted but i'm going away on holiday soon so want to try and sell it. Asking 120. E-mail for pics etc.

Ok Been browsing some sites on my day off, as you do, and was just wondering what make of kits people liked? It does not have to be your own as most drummers always have that "I wish I had that" kit in their head. Been looking particularly at DW and Brady kits. I know DW and have played and seen a few live and they seem pretty decent. Was wondering if anyone had heard a Brady kit before as they use that jarrh wood that apparently makes the drums sound lower than their sizes? So yeah, what make of kits do you like and why?

Hi Chris I own a Roland HD1-light. Its an ace little kit for the price and its a really good design so it saves space so you can fit it in a corner - my only issue is that it does not use pedals for your feet - it used paddles. So it wont improve your foot technice but then not many electric kits do to be honest. I think it depends on your price? My kit new is around 450-500 mark. But yeah go with Roland if you want my opinion as I think they are the best. D

PMed you
