Ok so after much deliberation I have finally taken the plunge and gone for an endorsement with US master drum builders HD Custom Drums (found through this very site!)
Final kit setup is as follows:
8x7, 10x7, 12x8 rack toms
14x12, 16x14 floor toms
18x17, 22x21 kick drums
14x6 walnut stave snare
12x5 maple aux snare
The whole kit will be satin black with aluminum hardware, 50% offset lugs. The side snare is to match, but the stave snare will not match.
All Evans heads, with white kick reso heads. Also might be having a built in kick mic on the big boy. All kicks are undrilled.
This is going to be one he'll of a kit! Hopefully I can arrange a build diary of the kit so we can see what's going on in the build.
Has anyone else got something custom of this size? Interested to hear people's thoughts!
