Last time i was at my local music shop next to a pearl export kit i saw two ad on toms. They were very thin but very long (im guessing 18"-22") and had Remo heads so i thought maybe they were a Remo make but i seearched all Remo products on musicians friend and found nothing (same for Pearl). I loved the sound of them and would greatly appreciate it if anyone knew what exactly these were :)
Oh and they look like two toms Frank Beard uses

Sound like octobans.
Long and thin, probably had remo black dots or something like that. Try Tama, they make some.

If you look for more threads of Barbie, you'll find a tutorial where she explains how she made regular toms like that. Pretty easy and they look really cool.
