Wow, that blue fade is really nice!

Imperssive set up you have there.

xX5thQuarterXx · #3 12-27-2006, 07:03 AM

Thank you! I think it costs around 3000,( just doin it in my head.)
Worked many overtime hours for my pride and joy!

Drummer Karl · #5 12-27-2006, 02:01 PM

Yes, pretty impressive! I think I also fell in love with that fade, nice!
the set-up: Also cool, pretty comfortable...and I think I know this rack tom set up from "fusssion" (a member here).

very nice colors. Looks like a dream to play.

xX5thQuarterXx · #7 12-28-2006, 05:13 AM

I love the blue fade. i personally have not seen another like it yet. Im sure there are but i havent seen one. It looks extremely good with a light shinning on it.

As for the set-up im thinking about moving all the toms down 1 place and getting an 8" tom also.

The remote hi-hat is one of the coolest things i have ever played. You can make some very cool beats with both hi-hats.

thats for the replys guys!

xX5thQuarterXx · #8 12-30-2006, 02:44 AM

Just played this beast all day at band practice! it Rocks!!!

I suggest everyone try out a PDP before uying a new kit!

xX5thQuarterXx · #9 01-16-2007, 05:01 AM

Here are some more pictures!

morbius25 · #10 01-16-2007, 08:09 PM

Ok, there is something wrong with these pics. No wait its my eyes. I saw this same kit at my local music store, and it doesn't look that good. This is the best pic I have ever seen. The color of that blue in this pic is like no other blue on the planet. Very nice kit.

wnameth · #11 01-16-2007, 09:30 PM

Nice -----> drums and nice mac!
ps what was ur reasoning to fill ur kit with ZHT? do you like them, i have never heard them, there above the zbt but below the zxt?

cool.

Red Hawk · #12 01-16-2007, 09:59 PM

nice!

how do the 10" ZHTs sound? I need to find something to put on the cable hat i just got... my local drum shop has a set of those 10s but i've never really hit them with anything other than my hand...

I always assumed they'd just be sort of mediocre since they're so inexpensive. Maybe not though?

Sometimes I wish I would have waited a couple years to get my Pacific since now they have all these snazzy finishes and exotic finish plies and whatnot. When I got mine there were 4 color choices, and the most exotic finish ply they had was maple, which is fine with me anyway... haha

Thanks guys! Umm i got 3 of the ZHT's as a gift in a pack. not my first choice but there not bad. The 10' Zht's i also got as a gift. They sound good but it depends on what style of music your playing. There pretty high pitched tho. So make sure you hit them with a stcik before you buy them......they sounds pretty good open though!

Thanks. I really love the blue, i havent seen on like it yet! (i know there are some though)

xX5thQuarterXx · #14 01-28-2007, 07:05 PM

Hey, I just picked up a new K Custom 18" Fast crash today!

Wow this think is amazing...Matches the A custom really nice! its LOUD as well!

Ill try to get some pictures of it!

Darmikalus · #15 01-28-2007, 07:56 PM

that finish is very nice, i hear pdps are excellent for the value

i like your setup, you have a nice little jam space there too what music do you play?

SketcHyRollin564 · #16 01-28-2007, 09:44 PM

i absolutley LOVE that finish. Probably my favorite finish on a drum.

xX5thQuarterXx · #17 02-12-2007, 07:14 AM

Yeah i love em, took me a while to get them in tune but now there excellent!

I got a couple new cymbals so ill post those pretty soon. and i re-arraged my toms..i didnt like the 3 rack.....

Umm i play mosty rock to answer your question...but im a pretty diverse player...i play with alot of different local bands.

xX5thQuarterXx · #18 03-02-2007, 08:05 AM

I'm going to try and get a drivers seat picture up tommrow, i got a pretty good set up. i took the 3 of the rack and only have 2 p their now!

blast beat my meat · #19 02-12-2009, 01:48 AM

thats effin crazy. i typed in pacific lx, to look up reviews and head recomendatoins etc, and your kit was in the first link i clicked, and it just so happens to be my EXACT same set EXACT same color, EXACT same mics, EXACT same double pedal i just bought for $350.
same cymbals and heads i want , and its set up beutiful as crap..

TheArchitect · #20 02-12-2009, 03:35 AM

Those toms look huge for 8 thru 14. The color is very nice. My PDP's are the CXR's in red sparkle wrap. I do like the laquer finish a bit better though.

tbmills · #21 02-12-2009, 05:15 AM

yeah, 8 10 12 14 are the depths. 10 12 14 16 are diameters

Yamahammer · #22 02-12-2009, 06:07 AM

Nice pdps bro! whatta ya think of that rack?? Im lookin at possibly getting one..

Nodiggie · #23 02-12-2009, 06:58 AM

Very nice to see another PDP player in here. That color ROCKS!

CONGRATS !!!!

Ainulindale · #24 02-12-2009, 08:01 AM

that blue fade is sublime, i've never seen anything like it! that is a monster cymbal set up you have there, what style of music do you play? and could i ask how you like the Emad2 kick? enjoy the great kit!

so... not trying to steal his thread, but being that i have the same kit in the same color, i can offer my opinion. First, yeah, i can also vouch for how amazing the color is. and his pics actually give a pretty good idea of how spectacular the finish is in person.
i also use the emad2 on my kick... i cant tell you how amazing it sounds... so much tone and low end (if desired), yet it still has amazing attack. its the best balance ive heard in a bass drum. i DEFINITELY recommend it.
and to the OP... love the kit and color (obviously :P)... love the fellow pdp players!

I have a 18 KC Fast Crash and I put it up with my A Fast Crash all the time. As and Ks go together very nicely. I also have a 14 KC Fast Crash that has a great sound. It's like a "belly" splash on steroids. Another awesome cymbal.

I like that fade on you PDPs. I play a 2003 PDP CX in a blue wrap. I really like the laquer finishes. Looks like a blast to play.
