Hey guys!
I'm looking for a nice little kit with that vintage-yet-modern sound that I'm after and have heard some great SJC kits lately. I know they get a bad rep for making some uglier kits but, that's what the customer wanted. So, I sent in a request for a quote for a nice little kit:
20x14 bass - Coated PS3 and Fibreskyn PS4 Resonant
13x8 - Coated Ambassador top and bottom
15x13 - Coated Ambassador top and bottom
Aged Marine Pearl Finish, Beavertail lugs, 30 degree rounded edges, black bass hoops with inlaid AMP in the middle, "weathered" hardware (looks dull and vintage looking), Butterfly bass claws, 2.3 rims, RIMS mount on the rack tom and DW floor tom rackets drilled into the shell. A few other bits, but I hope it will be under $1500.
I think that combined with the 5 ply mahogany shells, they could cover almost anything! I'm waiting for the quote still, but if it's something I could do, I may very well go for it. Anyways, any experiences with SJC that you'd like to share or just input?
Thanks guys!
