lol was that some attempt of a welsh accent :P

and cheers it sounds awesome with the new puresound snare wire

[GRUNTERSDAD]

Nice drums and nice K's also....

[drumhead61]

very nice looking kit indeed and that snare is beautiful! thanks for sharing.

[Ainulindale]

great pics! nice kit man, like the 1up, 2down set up and those K Customs are such great cymbals! the icing on the cake would be that incredible snare, love it...

[Khaine88]

thanks for the comments guys, very much appreciated

[Drumrunner]

Sweet looking kit! I love the whole setup. But why the one remo head on the tom? Does it sound better with that head on that tom?

[Khaine88]

its because my local shop never has any 12" evans g1 heads in stock. it doesnt sound bad (the remo) but i really should just order a head online

[Dave from Perth]

Hey, nice set-up. That's a killer-looking snare drum. It has a beautiful finish. My retriever used to howl like crazy when I played drums in the house - more in protest than appreciation I'd say. Thanks for sharing.

hey thanks alot dude, my dog tends to just sleep around and doesnt really mind me playing drums or my brother playing guitar. she can sleep through anything

[Pass.of.E.r.a.]

wow, i must say i'm really diggin' that orange finish, I think it has a cool effect with the cymbals color-wise. *thumbs up*

love that 1 up 2 down config aswell, looks very comfy

[frank0072]

looks great. love the idea of the drumrug too, with the tapes in place for everything. i have to setup every week and every week the set's different, and that bugs me sometimes.

[Meat the beat]

Nice kit Mate,
Weathers been nice hasn't it.... Must do the same sometime, especially as my 11 mnth old son has evicted me & my kits from what was my practice room!!!

[drumbum11]

great color, and nice doggy

[drummerchick435]

Beautiful kit and sweet set up! My church's kit has the same throne as you do. It's nice and comfy, eh?

[shoedaddy]

How does that UFIP cymbal blend in with the K's? Always interested in them but never see them anywhere around me.

[Muckster]

Thanks for the pics...Nice kit! Is your dog a Pyrenees? I did a double take because i thought i saw my dog!

[Khaine88]

it does blend well, but to be honest its a bit to heavy for my needs, i may replace it with something more crashable, allthough i will miss the awesome bell on the UFIP.


and muckster my dog is a golden retriever

[radeq]

nice set up, and colour, i agree with the stick and cymbal choice ;) veery good

[MNdrummer21]

You certainly have a substantial canine there friend. Love the K's and distinticive finish.
