My New Pies!!!

[hateplow]

Feast your eyes!
7-piece Custom Pork Pie Maple in Silver Sparkle to Blue Sparkle fade high-gloss laquer.
Toms:
7x8
8x10
9x12
12x14
14x16

7x14 snare
20x20 kick

I had another Pork Pie on special order, but was being driven slowly insane by the wait. I got this on ebay, like new condition, and cancelled my other order.

On a side note, I am now the poorest person on this forum and would appreciate any donations that you can spare.

[el pollo diablo]

beautiful. i love pork pies. please tell me how they sound!

[Mediocrefunkybeat]

Who needs custom orders when you can get something like that used? Awesome, I just adore that finish. Those drums really are great great drums. If you see a very small European car driving away leaving you for dust, you've had them nicked by me!

[Vegard]

set them up as fast as you can and post more pictures!! this looks really nice. and the finish is beeautiful!

[Drummer Karl]

Nice pigs!!! yes, I like this sparkle...a bit too cool though. lol

and don`t you have a Roland e-kit?

I'm going to need some lead time on that, as I now have to scrape together some cash for some mounting hardware. Should have them up in a week or so...

Hey Karl.
I HAD a Roland...
I had to sell it because it just wasn't the same as good old acoustic drums.
I like your new kit, by the way.

[franklinj]

Oooh, I saw that finish at this show I went to...its really, really nice. Me gusta mucho.

[figure_02]

Whoa great kit! Great sizes, to I would've prefered ab 22x18" kick, I simply dig that finish! How much did you pay? Also, how was your order in the first place, and how much would that've costed you?

[cdawg_2010]

Snap!!! thats a sweet finish and deep snare. what cymbals are you going to use

[hateplow]

Right now I've got a Paiste Signature full ride 21"
and Zildjian 15" New Beat hats. I'm basically starting all over with this kit, and still have to buy some tom stands, crash and splash cymbals, which could take a while.

Gracias. Me gusta tambien!

The cost for my original 5 piece order was about 900 less than what I got this for.
I had ordered the exact same snare, 12, 14 and 16" toms, and a 20x22 kick in a satin finish. This high-gloss laquer finish adds to the cost significantly over the satin, plus I got 2 drums that I would have probably added on later anyway. The only thing I had to sacrafice was 2 inches on the kick.

Envy is not a strong enough word. Have fun... and as far as being broke (lol) join thew club!!

[Ozzy Biz]

They are beautiful, absolutely exquisite. Envy and jealousy are both not strong enough words

[timebandit]

It looks like a kit that Batmans arch enemy Mr. Freeze would play!.......... It looks .......Frig g g g g gid!!! ( in other words......VERY COOL!!! )

[pdp 9091]

i would die waiting a week having those but not able to play because of no set up hardware...lol...guess u gotta reload ure account when the next paycheck comes around next week

[hateplow]

I decided to just throw the hardware on the Guitar Center Card. The mounts fit DW hardware, I wonder if I can find some tom stands that are cheaper with the same mount size....anyone know?

[jollymosher]

Ha, nice pigs! i bet the wife isnt to happy about it tho. put up recordings some time.

[NYdrummerdude]

beautiful set i love the finish

[hateplow]

Ha, nice pigs! i bet the wife isnt to happy about it tho. put up recordings some time.

She was very cool about me dropping a butt load of OUR money on that kit. She will probably freak once she realizes its gonna take 500 more just to be able to set them up.
She knew what she was getting into when she married me!

[pimp_my_RIDE]

And shes gonna even more freaked cause im gunna sue you for jaw injuries. But I will keep it low because I do have a hard floor.

[Drums558]

WOW, Killer finish and the sizes are perfect. I need to get to your place before MFB.
Congrats, those are sweet man.
Mike

[TopCat]

Dude, how did i miss this thread?! Fantastic kit. The more pie's the merrier.

AND a 21 full ride? Stop stealing my cymbals.

[Stu_Strib]

Wow! As a new Pork Pie owner myself, albeit just a Piglite snare, I have to say those drums look amazing, and I bet they sound even better. Hmmm, maybe my next kit...

Stu

[davodi74]

That kit is amazing. That wrap is freakin' psycadelic.

[YAMAHA DRUMMER]

beautiful set... good luck.
i wonder how the 20 by 20 bass drum sound like ? i never had a chance to play one....
take care

Beautiful kit by the way! How's that kick?

[chops4kicks]

WOW! one of the best kits on this site, especially the finish, "envy is not a big enough word" is exactly right forget the bills bud trick that out!

[Stu_Strib]

Hey I see some sort of sparkly blue Yamaha in the background. Based on the badges they appear to be Custom Absolutes...

Care to compare/contrast the two drumsets?

Stu

[Class A Drummer]

Looks great. Ive always had a thing for sparkle fades.

[beatsMcGee]

Well, the guy I bought the drums from is sponsored by Yamaha. Appearently he is fabulously wealthy and has like 20 kits. Those Yammies are his. I WISH i could help you. If you ever want to hear sound files of Pork Pies go to indoorstorm.com. You probably knew that.

[Drum Monkey]

Very nice drums! I myself have plans to head to the bakery to pick up a pie (throne).

[pdp 9091]

Now thats one nice looking kit right there. The finish is amazing. Blue and white is an amazing combo especially in a fade. Now you should get a matching car. haha

[gmrakich]

wow. Bill is a great shell painter. Those are beautiful. You are a happy man. How does the square kick feel????

[hateplow]

It's a cannon. I am very pleased.

[hauk]

great looking kit. i've been thinking about a 20" bass for easier tom positioning, perhaps i should think about 20x20

[Stingaxe]

Nice kit. That finish is awesome

[hateplow]

great looking kit. i've been thinking about a 20" bass for easier tom positioning, perhaps i should think about 20x20
It really helped my tom setup. I am much more comfortable now, especially with the DW 9300 snare stand.

[drumzrf47]

Great looking kit,you will love it,i have played Pies since 2004

[somedrummer]

Yeah, he got them all set up. *Nods Upward*

They look great. I'd love to hear a 20x20 bass. I have a 20x16 and love it, but I'd like to hear one.

[R3flex]

Oh muh gawd, that is absolutely beautiful! Must have cost a fortune though. Recordings any time soon?

[fatedrummer]

[RFEDrummer]

i have never seen a fade like that before and it is absolutely gorgeous!!! thats one mighty fine kit you got yourself there, im jealous!

[Deathmetalconga]

Very nice custom set! The color isn't my cup of tea, but it is well done and striking and I can see why many others like it.

What do Pork Pies sound like? How do they compare to other custom drum sets?

Pork Pies are very resonant, and they are made with a different number of plies depending on the size of the drum.
I can describe my kit as sounding very "fat". They are the best sounding maple customs I have ever played (or heard).

[Spence]

Sweeeeeeeeeet! I would bloody love a 20x20 bass. I like the finish, but I have always had a problem witht the badges. They could look nicer. Only a ninor problem though.

[Deathmetalconga]

What a nice top-of-the-line set. I would like to see it set up with cymbals, etc.

[Tom B.]

I love the colors blue and white together especally on a drumset, just like the Toronto Maple Leafs jerseys...

[AronMapex]

Awsome :) Beautiful love the color

[drumbandit]

absoloutly perfect drums, the finish is beautiful. this is such an old post i didnt realise it would go back to the top if i commented the drums but theyre lovely all the same,

[Almuric]

On a side note, I am now the poorest person on this forum and would appreciate any donations that you can spare.

CRAP!! How many drumsets are in that room?? And all some kind of blue (which I love!) No wonder you're poor.Do you have enough drums now?...

Wait... Nevermind. There's never enough. (Though Bozzio is approaching that point.)

Anyway, beautiful tubs, man. I'd love to hear them.

Tomodrum1, thanks for topping this post. I'd have missed it!

[Chunkaway]

Hateplow, what gives? I just saw your kit for sale on ebay. Why are you selling it? I have looked at your kit on this website several times-I ordered a blue sparkle kit from Pork Pie.

Say it ain't so!

It ain't so!
I almost had a trade for a new 6 piece exotic DW...but I bailed out like 10 minutes after I posted it my kit...couldn't go through with it.
Stay tuned for updated pics with a new setup and some new Paistes!
Were you the guy who ordered that monsterous kit with a gong drum?

So, do you think the DW sounds better than the Pork Pie? Not criticizing, by the way, just asking.

No gong drum for me. I actually ordered a five piece kit (1 tom up, 2 toms down) from Bill at Pork Pie. Only 14 more weeks to go. Sigh....

I don't think they sound any better, it was just an incredible opportunity.
A DW exotic is (another) dream kit of mine.
14 weeks, that sucks...looking forward to pics!

[BoxcarDrummer182]
