Tama Granstar. There you go.

Umm, No?

It was an Artstar...

[Mediocrefunkybeat]

The white and black kit was a Granstar. Referencing the article, it mentions the Granstar lugs with Artstar shells. However; it is referred to as the 'Granstar' in every other single article I've seen.

I don't see any citations on the article. That's important.

Nope. The Granstar is birch. He used that on the Blackened Justice tour. It was grey with black hardware and you can see it in the music video for the song "One".

That kit was infact an Artstar II with black Granstar lugs.

You and your artical are half right.

Curiouser and curiouser. I know the Granstar is the birch kit and that's what I thought he was using up until the end of the Black Album tour. Interesting.

Blackened Justice tour was for ...And Justice For All. Not the Black Album.

Blackened Justice he used the grey Granstars, as seen here:
