Firstly. The drumkit.

Specifications:

Yamaha Stage Custom Standard. Natural Matte Finish.

8" 10" 12" 14" 22" 14" snare.

Gear:
Two Yammie stands. One Tama. Sonor arm, two clamps, one's not being used. Using a snare stand to hold the 10" tom because I can place it more easily over the bass drum and I don't need a cymbal stand to hold it off.

Gibraltar Avenger double pedal

I have clear emperors on the heads and stock 1 ply resos. I would like to replace them all again with clear ambs over ambs but that costs money and they sound fine the way they are at the moment.

Coated ambassador on the snare, sweetness, starting to flake though and needs replacement. Guess what I'm going to replace it with? That's right, another freakin' amb. Sweetness.

Cymbals:

13" zzrockshoppro hi hats. *cough*

16" and 18" UFiP Rough Series Crashes.

18" Wuhan China.

10" Wuhan Splash.(Not pictured.)

20" Zildjian A Ride from the 70's-ish.

good call

[The Leper Messiah]

I'm liking that finish on the fridge man, looks awesome.

Yeah, I think it's called Millenia white.

[Finch88]

sweet kit, sweet acoustic, sweet wah, sweet fridge

[RichHunt]

Sweet electric. :(

[Finch88]

sorry ... i cant say much about the electric because its a clone.

if it was a clone i have played then i could comment it!

[RichHunt]

You couldn't say much about it even if it was real. Stupid Gibson and their stupid inconsistant construction.

[playwithfire]

Looks good man, that's a pretty nice natural finish.

[Double Bass Jim]

Ahhh sweet gear.

Love them yammies.

[RichHunt]

Thanks guys.

[Finch88]

dont blame gibson ... blame the people dumb enough to buy a guitar without playing it first

[RichHunt]

dont blame gibson ... blame the people dumb enough to buy a guitar without playing it first


I plan on doing that. :D

but I'd never buy a guitar over $700 max doing it that way and I'd research it heaps before hand.

Sometimes ebay have really nice deals that I wouldn't pass up on, and if it's really cheap you can always put new pickups in it, new tuners, and with a nice set up and you can have a great backup guitar.

But I need a new good main guitar which I'll be playing before buying.

[Finch88]

check out ernie ball guitars ... they are amazing

a sub1 goes for about 800 new on musiciansfriend ... i got mine from guitar center for about half that brand new

[Aaron]

i love tim tams. americans are missing out there!

[Brokensticks]

Nice everything, we need a fridge in our jam room :lol:

[Trainee_Guitarist]

I read "To Kill A Mockingbird" at school this year.

Isn't the China a bit too far from you??

[RichHunt]

Trainee_Guitarist: Nah it's not too far. I could have it maybe an inch or two closer but I don't want to bend my arm heaps when I hit my cymbals. It's like, it seems like a good idea in theory to have it really close in but when you put it into practice you realise the flaws.

Also I'm not reading To Kill a Mockingbird yet, but intend to start. Mum's urging me to read it.

Finch88: The Musicmans? Yeah, they're hella expensive here! I'm thinking of grabbing a nice sunburnt telecaster. This guy on ebay sells "Dillion" guitars which look pretty nice and I'm going to see if I can try them out as they're pretty cheap. I'm also going to look into schectors, Cole Clarks (the mistress is possibly one of the best guitars I've ever played), Maton and some other guitars.

That's down the track though, I think I need a new amp first because I believe mine's starting to have some issues, it's either that or the pedal I'm using but I'm having trouble telling which it is. I need to borrow an amp so I can tell.

[ian1988]

Mmmmm Tim Tams...Just wondering which ones your favourite? I LOVE the Dangerous Liasons Choccolate Truffle !!

Yeah what a pitty you yanks cant savour the goodness of Tim Tams :D

[RichHunt]

Just the natural ones man, just the natural.

[RichHunt]

Bump!

[blujelly]

everything in them pics looks so pretty!!!

[RichHunt]

Thanks, everything's pretty messy in real life though.

[Kosmos Tree]

That fridge rules, everybody should have one :)

Nice stuff :thumb:

[RichHunt]

Yeah it's awesome, I just need stuff to put in it, hopefully I'll grab some cans tomorrow and chuck em in for easy accessability!

[RichHunt]

Bumping is the latest guilty pleasure.. just like everything else.

[RushHourSoul]

That all looks pretty damn hot. Man I need a fridge, no more going to the kitchen when you need food. I like that Maton acoustic guitar too. The electric looks nice, I don't like the feel of les pauls that much though, it seems like they take a while to get used to.

[White]

That is a really nice kit, and nice guitars to lol. But ya, thats an excellent finish you have on your set, and good cymbal choice :thumb:

[Drum Monkey]

nice kit! Where do YAMAHA Stage Custom Advantages stand? The kind with the sweet yellow finish... Same range as 3005s?

That's a stage custom advantage, same as mine but with a wooden snare and glossy finish (but I prefer my matte finish).

They'd be up there with the 2005s and superstars, some might disagree because it's a wood combo and not full out wood, but the Pearl References are wood combos too and they fookin' rock. haha.

[White]

Thats a nice set, Ya I liek the Pic posted bout 4-5 posts up ^^^ posted by drummonkey it looks better like htat I'd say, but non the less I liek it. And that is a nice fridge to haha, I want a mini fridge soo badly

[[Fonya]]

Nice kit man, one of the few natural finishes that I actually like.

[RichHunt]

Thanks.

[BFdrummer]

Good thing I went and checked out guitar stores to buy my Ltd, and didn't go on stupid music123 and buy from those a**holes.

Nice drums and nice LP copy

[milkmit]

LOVE that natural finish on the kit.

...and the guitar.....and the bed frame.. :)

[RichHunt]

[Ounce]

Nice kit!

I have the stage custom advantage. Just curious you probably mentioned it but it's hard to see... how do you have your 8" tom mounted?

Here's my stage custom:

http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/4775/drums2.jpg

You can't really see it in but it's mounted off a clamp on the cymbal stand that's holding both crashes.

[Massik Kretal]

Damn you RichHunt, my thread isnt doing this well. :upset:

Nice drums by the way.

[rockindrummer]

Awsome pics man. It all looks really great! Awsome natural finish on the yamaha too :thumb:

[RichHunt]

Thanks rockindrummer.

Damn you RichHunt, my thread isnt doing this well. :upset:

Nice drums by the way.

THAT IS BECAUSE I AM BETTER LOOKING THAN YOU!

I also have a fridge.

[Ill Mitch]

Where'd you get that fridge? I'd like one myself, seeing as I drink a lot of soda and would like it cold.

Nice kit too, natural finishes kick ***.

[RichHunt]

Well it's kinda noisy and not very good at cooling things, but if you really are interested search for Waeco on google. Fridgemaster, as well, if you can't find anything.

[yourstruly]

shoulda called the fridge Fridgemaster 3000!

[playwithfire]

:lol: Drinks a lot of soda, so needs a mini fridge? My housemate and I each have a mini fridge, but they are more or less just for alcohol, and alcoholic mix... so certain types of soda are allowed :p. Otherwise we have a big fridge full of food... and if you're hungry... it's not that hard to walk to the kitchen :p.

[Aaron]

Just the natural ones man, just the natural.
123, tammies for me

[oliv_da_skinmasher]

Nice kit man

[RichHunt]

Thanks.

PWF: Fridge.. so far.. must.. reeeach.. fooor.. cooooke.

[Half Life]

Yuck, Coke is terrible. Bad choice :(

Otherwise everything else looks great :lol:

[RichHunt]

The store didn't have a whole lot of choice when I was there. I don't mind coke, but I would've prefered something more exotic! Hehe.

[Double Bass Jim]

Cokes the best man, love the burn it gives on the first drink :cool:

[RichHunt]

I'm actually a fan of cold flat coke.

*hides behind shields, scared of being pummeled by rocks of flat coke haters*

[aznriceball]

i have that amp!!1

sweet kit and mirror, u can pull some kinky stuff with a mirror that big

[RichHunt]

You have a Jordan 15 watter? Are you serious? I didn't think anyone else could possibly have even seen one. haha.
