My big fear is exposing my lameness to all. I am hoping to get a couple of buddies together for a big jamalamathon. When that happens I would like to tape some of it and post it here or somewhere else. I hate taping myself playing because it always sounds so lame. Playing with others (to my ears anyway), puts the drums in context, and almost always makes them sound better. Regardless of my lame playing. Barry

I love the small kit, it would be great for gigs with limited stage space. I am sure they sound huge as with all DW kits.

Man DW drum kits are really nice. They look really over the top but some people like that I guess.

At least I think thanks are in order as I am assuming that you are reffering to this bop kit. If not, please excuse my arrogance. These drums do sound huge. I picked up one of those Gibralter bass drum lifts, and it does makes a difference. I am able to set my pedal to where it feels comfortable, and have the beater hit in the sweet spot. I don't know if the VLT really makes a difference, but this 18 does sound bigger than what I expected. This kit has roughly the same footprint as my 22, 16, 13. One of the drawbacks to the flush based hardware is that you have to extend the legs full out. With regular hardware you can spread the legs as wide, or narrow as you need to save a little space. Placing the stands to where the legs are not overlapping each other while keeping everything at proper arms reach will take a little more adjustment. All in all, I am very impressed with the sound of this little beast. I switched heads on the toms, using the stock batter heads for resos, a coated EC-1 on the 12, and an EC reverse dot snare head on the floor tom. More boom than boink with this combo. I think that I am getting used to the Zildjians as well. They are starting to sound like they belong on this kit. Barry

Wow! I just love your finish!! If I can ask you, how much does the drum costs, just the drum? I really want to get a DW that has a similar finish with yours, but I just don't know how to get them and how much they really cost! Some help?? Thanks

Nice kit Billy! Classic sizes, classic drums, although I would like to see that Ludwig snare.

Oh..my..god.. I think I need new jeans. I've always loved that finish, and the black hardware just sets the whole thing off!
Great job! Awesome kit! |

...I took some new pics.
This is my playpen. This is my big kit. 24x16, 16x16, 13x9, 14x6 edge 20" Manhattan, 14" dark hats, 16" thin, 17" HHXtreme, 18" fast china. This is my small kit. 18x16, 14x14, 12x8, 14x6 20" A Zildjian med ride, 14" new beats, 16" K dark, 16" A med thin crashes. I am really enjoying these kits. I liked the way Bojangleman had his cymbals in his avatar, so it inspired me to change my normal position, and add the china to my fave drums and my fave cymbals. My bop kit sounds HUGE. I added the wood hoops, and a reverse dot EC-1 to the snare, and switched to those clear EC-1s on the toms. The toms have lost some of their warmth with the clear heads, but I like the brightness, and projection. Adding the bass drum riser allows me to set my pedal where It feels comfortable, and have the beater hit in the sweet spot. This little bass sounds a loy bigger than I honestly thought it would. I really like these Zildjian cymbals. I might buy a 15 or 17" china to go with these, maybe a K. Barry

Hey Barry, when you play one of your kits, does the entire " DW museum"resonate?....seriously, dont you get symathetic resonance from all the other drums in the room?

I don't really know, but it does make sense. Having a bunch of drums in the room would probably make them sound a little warmer. I would like to thank you for the excuse that I need to justify my last, and future purchases. All of the drums in the shrine are for sound enhancement, and I have a few more gaps to fill. I love playing them. I just wish that I could set them all up at once. Barry

To be honest, I couldn't tell you exactly how much this kit would cost if you ordered it that way. I am DW endorsed. But since this is a complete custom job by their absolutely amazing airbrush artist Louie Garcia, I would assume that a similar kit (23"BD,8",10",12",15",18", 14"SN) would probably be around 11000$..

Salomon how does that Istanbul sound? I've always been interested (but never been able to play) those not-so-common cymbals like Instanbul. Diggin the kit by the way!

I studied under Rick Latham for about a year www.ricklatham.com
He is endorsed by Istanbul, I got to play his set a lot. I love the Istanbul cymbals. I play all vintage Zildjian As. These sounded great to my ear, just as a reference point for you. But like I always say, tone is subjective, what I like you may not. |
