Sorry this is taking forever.

Sleishman 14x6" Blackwood stave. Absolutely KILLER snare drum.

wy yung · #51 07-13-2012, 03:16 AM

Late 1960's Slingerland Sound King chrome over brass. This is one of my favorite snare drums.

wy yung · #52 07-13-2012, 03:26 AM

Ludwig LM 400.

wy yung · #53 07-13-2012, 03:33 AM

Same drum just after I fitted new head combination I liked.

wy yung · #54 07-13-2012, 03:52 AM

Lovely Ludwig Supersensitive from 1966. Incredible sounding drum. It is very well preserved with little pitting. The mechanism can be tricky but is worth it.

wy yung · #55 07-13-2012, 04:03 AM

Another look at the mechanism. Nice to also have the period bag. Although it offers little protection and fits into another bag and then a case for transportation.

wy yung · #56 07-13-2012, 04:14 AM

Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute. These are terrific drums.

bobdadruma · #57 07-13-2012, 04:25 AM

Holy Crap wy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gretsch 14x 6 1/2 hammered brass.

GRUNTERSDAD · #59 07-13-2012, 04:35 AM

Love the Gretsch. Looks like my Gretsch Brooklyn hammered COB I bought a month ago. Sounds awesome I'm sure.

wy yung · #60 07-13-2012, 04:35 AM

Tama Imperialstar14x6 1/2 steel snare from 1982. These drums were not top of the line if I recall... However they do compare well with modern Tama snares. Quite heavy but incredibly powerful. Fantastic rock drum.

wy yung · #61 07-13-2012, 04:44 AM

Thanks guys. For some reason photos are not showing and this pc in the cafe is mega slow. I must stop now.

Again sorry this is taking forever. My time is limited and I am still not online at home.

I hope everyone's well.

uniin · #62 07-13-2012, 07:32 AM

I am so jelous! Any chance i can come over and hear some of these? haha

wy yung · #63 07-13-2012, 07:38 AM

Sonor Artist Brass.

keep it simple · #64 07-13-2012, 08:13 AM

Some lovely additions to your collection there. Although glitzy, I love the Sonor Artist. Are those lug locks I see?

wy yung · #65 07-13-2012, 08:58 AM

The nylon washes look a little like lug locks. Sonor have internal locks. High end Sonors don't detune.

These are not new editions. i have owned the brass above for years. My problem is everything is in storage and it is difficult to access many drums. It is a big storage area.

Ah, ok then, a new addition to me :) Either way, some beautiful instruments.

wy yung · #67 07-13-2012, 09:51 AM

Cheers mate. Loads of this gear was on the old thread but some is new. The Tama BB on the previous page i bought last year. Same story with the Carl Palmer snare. Which is a great little drum.

I am trying to upload more pics from my phone but am having little luck.

wy yung · #68 07-13-2012, 10:23 AM

Here is a better pic of the aforementioned Japanese made 13x6" Tama BB. This drum was part of a batch made at Mike Portnoy's request..apparently. It is a very nice drum with a sound that belies its size. The hoops and the rest of the hardware is up to Tama's usual very high standard.

wy yung · #69 07-13-2012, 10:35 AM

Sonor Delite 14x4.25 snare. Another amazing drum from Sonor.

wy yung · #70 07-13-2012, 10:57 AM

Tama JB 13x6 1/2 steel snare. This is imo a very underated drum. It can be exceptionally loud, but is also versy sensitive.

wy yung · #71 07-13-2012, 11:44 AM

Another shot of Carl Palmer's signature Ludwig brass snare. A great drum that I bought because I couldn't finf a Yamaha David Garibaldi, and I did not want to take my 1920's Ludwig and Ludwig out on those shows.

wy yung · #72 07-13-2012, 12:14 PM

Gon Bops Tumbao stainless steel timbales with 1 Meinl cowbell.

wy yung · #73 07-13-2012, 12:46 PM

Pearl Virgil Donati snare drum. Hopefully this comes out at it's normal size.

wy yung · #74 07-13-2012, 01:39 PM

Dixon 14x5 marble snare drum.

wy yung · #75 07-14-2012, 03:17 AM

Meinl chekere.

LP bell tree.

wy yung · #78 07-14-2012, 10:56 PM

I've really been getting into maple hoops. Some drums come alive with them. Of course not all drums love them. But how cool do they look? :-)

wy yung · #79 07-14-2012, 11:01 PM

20" Sultan ride.

wy yung · #80 07-14-2012, 11:12 PM

19" Session crash. These cymbals have it all, explosive, subtle, tone and cut. Amazing all purpose cymbals.
