J-M is still in business. The reason for not taking orders, is Scott Jenkins has been dealing with a debilitating back problem, and is unable to build the drums right now.

I alternate between a pair of Vater “Jazz Ride” sticks and ProMark “Hot Rods” in these gig situations. Depends on if the songs need a more refined ride sound, or a rim click.

I picked up an offset Pearl stand that goes really low, for when I use my J-M 8x14.

The EMAD1 is my go to batter on all my spun fiberglass bass drums! I use an Aquarian super-thin patch with the plastic DW beater.

Can you show the damaged throwoff? I’m wondering if it just disengaged, as the bottom piece snaps off/on for easy snare side head changes. Btw, beautiful snare drum!

For the record, they were actually sitting on the curb.;)

I’ve shared a meal or two with Jon, always an enjoyable time! Give me a ring Jon, and I’ll treat you to another! :)

Is the newer Silver Sparkle wrap louder than the original SS wrap?

I have used the domino retroplate on a couple snares, works great!

That was awesome David! Very cool to see Steve Bartek on guitar!

I have Paiste 16” and 17” Traditional thin crashes that I absolutely love. I do have some early 80’s original Sabian HH crashes, in those same sizes. I think I’m going to experiment, and see how they sound. Btw, my go to hi-hats, are early 80’s 15” Paiste SE!

Did a nice little restaurant gig this past Friday!

Thanks for the thorough review!

I may have some, let me check.

Got any pics?

@Ryan Culberson So, how you liking them?

Just heard this David, really digging this version! Wow! :cool:

I’ve always felt that the 14x24 is “the” perfect size bass drum!

Interesting that you have the 13” tom ahead of the 12” tom. Looks cool though! :cool:

Allen Blaemire started making his spun-fiberglass shells in 1962.
