Yea took me a bit to realize how to engage them. But yea since engaging, the kick just doesn’t movePearl's retractable spurs are sublime. On a drum rug, your bass won't budge.
Those hi hat stands are excellent. I have one and I should probably sell my Sonor 4000 hi hat and get another one.Replaced the HH stand that came with my first kit last year with a TAMA Iron Cobra 200.

Not a huge deal, but it sure is nice and shiny!
This thing with a bunch of big Rs on it
Likely an '83, XP8 shells.
This thing is LOUD. It might be old, but it's definitely not "vintage" sounding. Thick maple shells, dual-45 edges, nothing subtle here.

Apparently this was called "Midnight Blue", I don't see the blue lol.I love green on any instrument! Nice rig there.
Reminds me of the classic British racing green. Nice color.Apparently this was called "Midnight Blue", I don't see the blue lol.
An LP Mambo cowbell, DW claw mount for said cowbell, a Tunebot (that's right @yammyfan, I joined the cult) and a 22" Masters dark crash/ride. There's an LP rock cowbell coming too, but apparently LP either needs to forge it after mining the ore or find the cow and steal it back.
Some books for an upcoming vacation
Rakim: Sweat the Technique
Questlove: Music is History
That looks like a new version of what I have, I think mine is a 2007 model. It weighs a lot but is a very good high hat stand.Just ordered a new hihat stand, Yamaha HS1200D. Seems really good, and a bit cheaper than regular price at Thomann at the moment (even cheaper than a Mapex Falcon). I sold the one I had to a drummer friend in crisis a few months ago, but a few upcoming gigs in march is kind of forcing me to buy a new one now, so I'm eagerly awaiting to try it out.
