That, my friend, is a sexy kit.

That's a Paragon? Coulda fooled me. I love the kit though, man.. that mounted tom is GIGANTIC!

[d.c.drummer]

I don''t understand whats small about your kit. Its all done big boy style, just the way it should be.

If you dont mind, im not a big reso head guy, but my drum "mentor" always told me to get hazy 300's on my snare. whats the difference (physically and soundwise) between the Hazy 200 and 300?

Yess it is pretty huge.
I never heard of that line of Tama's before; Oh well you learn something new every day.

I like the mixed hats!

Compared to my other kits it's small believe me. The 200 is just a smaller gauge of head that provides a little bit more sensitivity for rolls and sticking. I'm not quite sure if I'm pleased with the sound so far so I'll be trying out thicker like the 300 and heavier.

Looks good! Never heard of Tama Granstar though... how would they compare to starclassics?

[TopCat]

I love it, i love it, i love it. Great looking stuff.

[Mediocrefunkybeat]

Hello Mr. Ulrich, the other half of your kit has arrived!

[joey]

Duuuude love the kit always wanted old tamas (artstar,granstar n imperialstar)

love the look n sound man cant get better


i might get a bit of stick for this but im not too much of a new tama fan lol

[thumper]

Oh man,
I LOVE those..(.Can you say "POWER toms"?) Those arrowhead lugs and the bass drum tom mount are so cool!
How you like the Hihat combo?

[Zildjian 242]

Thats so sweet. I also play a old white tama...But yours is better lol

I really did the paragon as well

[Mendozart]

I really love the white Tamas and yours look awesome. I just recently picked up an older white DW set to replace my old Tama Superstars. I love the way the black resos look on white drums. Here's a pic of mine.

That snare is a beast.

[Joe Kearney]

I bet its easier to setup than the blue beast

Haha, quite. I can also see out the back of my truck too so that's nice.

First of all much much more sensitive. even brushes are plenty loud. gives you a nice crisp pop so you can hear some snare in there.

With Evans Gdry and Hazy 200 you love live, just a little bit more.

[Safetyhelmetkid]

sweet kit...huge fan of the 8 inch snares.

judging from your set-up, you might find this kinda cool...i met Jazz Bonham today. She's John's granddaughter. HOW FREAKIN SWEET? anyway, love the kit, kepp truckin, yadda, yadda, yadda...

[Colin]

that snare is AMAZING.

[Salicete]

Nice kit, looks heavy-duty, but the BD tom mount looks like the bottom half of a bowling trophy; regardless, I would love to have that kit in my own collection. ;)

Liking the kit, however not sure about those lugs, are they a bit marmite, love 'em, hate 'em.
