Hiya all!
There was a thread here started by SGT I believe- he was talking about a drum build- I too was considering that and decided to go ahead- I am just getting prices for vertical grain shells
10/6,12/7,14/8,16/10,20/18bd and 14/6.5 snare. with pre done bearing edges, snare beds. The reso bearing edges will be slightly rounded to countour the sound like a vintage set.
I intent to build it myself and use ec2s and ec1s on the toms, not sure about the snare heads as yet, still thinking! I want to stain and oil the shells as they will be birch- for that high end crack and cut.
I will use cast hoops on all but the bass drum, that will be wood hoops. Guager rims for suspension also.
This set is gonna be wicked as I hear the vertical grain is good for attack---Has anyone here done this with a vertical grain birch?
