Who doesn't love a hot blond with a lot of bottom?
It's that time of the month, I got a new kit. I actually traded up my Champagne Sparkle Classic Maple kit for this behemoth. They've got a huge sound and were obviously built to project...*very* thick shells. I need to figure out how to tune (and/or a new head combination) to warm them up a bit. The kick drum is a cannon...it's got "sperm-neutralizing punch". I believe they're late 70's or early 80's but perhaps LVDC or Bermuda can fill me in?
The lacquer is flaking off near the edges but I knew that ahead of time and got a great deal on eBay. I plan to sand the rest of it off and re-lacquer them soon. These will be my workhorse, gigging drums. Stay tuned next month to see the kit that *won't* leave the house!

16"x16" FT
11"x12" TT
12"x13" TT (not using)

Toms outfitted w/ Coated G2s over Clear G1s, EQ1 batter on kick w/ EMAD reso, and Genera Dry w/ Hazy 300 on the snare.

21" HHX Groove Ride

10" Paragon Splash
20" Paragon Chinese
