  1. Set of golf clubs up for grabs - full set without I think an 8 iron. It has;

     

    Driver

    3 wood

    Irons

    Putter

     

    Comes in a bag with a few balls, tees etc.

     

    It's quite an old set but I played with them last year and they were decent enough. Free to a good home.

  2. Evans G14 Coated on batter side, Evans G2 Coated on bottom side.

     

    No rust or damage to any of the lugs etc.

     

    I spent an hour last night fiddling with one tom and still couldn't get it sounding 'right', if that makes sense. I may invest in a tension key if I can find one.

  3. So, I am and always have been absolutely terrible at tuning toms on a drumkit.

     

    I have fitted new heads to my toms lately and they sound fucking awful. Looking at advice online, it's not massively helpful.

     

    I've read about a 'tensioner' you can get to tune them properly, and R&B have said they can professionally tune them but it's fucking pricey.

     

    Any advice?

  4. Do you mean sticking legs on rack toms? If so, why not use a snare drum stand to hold the toms, rather than using the rack mounting? I do that with my one rack tom and it allows me to place it exactly where I want it without worrying about them moving about when playing.

     

    Also, I have a brand new Gibralter clamp I bought and never used, you can easy have it if you want?

  5. Like the song, although from your Toms gig, I think you have better tracks (just my wee opinion).

     

    I really like Nadia's voice in it, she's quite Cranberries-ish and I like the breath-y vocals.

     

    Bass needs turned up a smidge and I actually disagree with the above posters and really like the guitars.

     

    Drums are inventive as well.

  6. Spoke to a couple of Engineers and it seems to be as simple as making sure they have a spare channel to plug into. Would also benefit me as the 'ringing in the ears after a practice or gig' has now stretched from a couple of hours to 2 days.

  7. Essentially looking for a bit of advice on these - spoken to a couple of drummers who say they're brilliant and others who say they're not.

     

    Our problem is our keyboard player could really do with his own monitor rather than sharing mine and I'd like to hear a bit more of the band during a gig.

     

    So - in ear monitors - worth the expense? What are your experiences with them? And also, recommend some if you can?

  8. My current kit - Mapex V Fusion with Mapex hardware and Premier Classics Snare. Using 15" Istanbul Traditional hats, with 16" Istanbul Traditional Fast Crash and a 16" Paiste Signature Crash and 22" Istanbul Traditional Ride.

     

    Want to replace my snare fairly soon and could do with some new hardware but happy enough.

  9. Yeah using the Mapex one full time now, it's cracking - apart from anything else, I don't have the space to store 2 kits but the Premier is a cracking kit.

     

    I gigged with it for the last year and a half and it's a piece of piss to move. You want to have a look at it tonight?

     

    I had it away on our wee tour last year as well.
