favourite drummer's set-up

[fromtheshadows]

right basicly this thread can be where we can discuss and see what your fav artists set-up is, come on everyone has a different one in one way or another, so come on whats your favourite?

personally i like nick m? from it dies today, its a simple 5 piece but it looks good and is very easy to play.( i set-up my drums like it)

so whats yours?

[HeLLmO]

i like a few, i really like neil peart's red tama set up, a classic, i like the set Taylor Hawkins used on One By One by Foo Fighters, i really dig Portnoy's purple monster, i like Chris Adlers set, looks like fun to play, and i dig Chad Smith's kit, it is nice and tight and amazing

[White]

My Favorite Artists SET Up is Buddy Richs 5 iece 2 Floor Toms One Rack ,Thats the way I love set ups, and yet he was amazing with such little amounts, compare that to todays drummers who have like 28 different drums and endless amounts of cymbals to make there stuff sound good, Id say its amazing. But hypocritically my favorite artist is Portnoy haha.

[Jezen]

My own.

[SkaRabbit]

^^ i like your setup in your vid 3min+ solo. i am inspired to setup mine similar. what hats do you have dude? they sound sweeet.

[Jezen]

They are the Istanbul Agop 13" Sultan hats. I like my setup even more now. Between my 12" tom and my ride, I have added a 10" tom. Yes, the toms are reversed because it's a fun thing to do.

[SkaRabbit]

So when you gonna get a new vid of a solo/groove up? I learn alot some how watching you drum. Would like to see your newer setup too. How much did those hats set you back. After my wuhans arrive i may look into some second hats

[BrekelmansInAbsentia]

i like how buddy riches snare was tilted away from him, ive tried it, and its awesome for rolls, but i kept hitting the rim when doing a beat. i love danny careys set up, with all those electric octagon things, i would to goof around on a set like that

[Jezen]

Ohh I dunno how much they were. 140 maybe? I think that was from drumshop.co.uk.

They bought an entire shipment and were sellin em real cheap.

I might make another vid very soon. I filmed one (gladstone technique) and I just have to put it on the computer.

[SkaRabbit]

I look forwed to it BB!

[SkaRabbit]

BB did you get any drum related presents?

[Jezen]

Well, no. I mean I got drum stuff all throughout the year so that really accounted for my xmas pressies. But still, I got 60 quid for a new throne!

[SkaRabbit]

Cool. Any idea what throne?*cough* Big Dog*

[Jezen]

I really want the Big Dog but im 45 short. :(

I might get the Pulse Pro Saddle from MF, America. That way I have alot of money left over.

[steeldrummer11]

Definitly john bonhams setup with the vistalites

[SkaRabbit]

I have never ordered from american sites....i always fear that it will end up costing more for shipping tax etc.

[Jezen]

Eligible for free shipping apparently :confused:

[PandaDrummer]

I love thomas langs x-ray setup...it looks so comfy.
I also like Neil Pert's setup cause its just so dam unique.
and you gotta love Portnoys big, but not overly big setup.
and i like barker's setup...what can i say...its very snazzy

[SkaRabbit]

Definatly abroad? Do you know if you have to pay any extra VAT or what not?

[SkaRabbit]

from MF

Question
Do you offer Free Shipping for your International Customers?


Answer
At this time we do not offer Free Shipping for International Customers.

[Jezen]

Ouch. Maybe I should sell some stuff, and save for the doggie throne.

[Sharkey Boy]

I love Janet Weiss of Sleaters Kinneys set up , comfy simple 4 piece, with very loud loose cymbals

[SkaRabbit]

Can't wait till i start work in january. Then i can buy some new shiney things for my drums.

Big Dog is always a wise investment. I got the pedals and the hat stand. The throne will be mine!

[Jezen]

Hmmm...I could get the hat stand now and throne later...

Hmmm....

[yourstruly]

My favourite setup is Chris Wilsons 'Truth' setup.

[SkaRabbit]

Hmmm...I could get the hat stand now and throne later...

Hmmm....


On adc the throne is only £80 you said you had £60? the hat stand is exactly £59 on there. The hat stand is chunky. Very solid.

[Jezen]

:o Do you think they still do the blue ones? InTime Perc only shows black.

EDIT: Oh darn, you can only get blue ones in vinyl. I think my but prefers cloth...

[SkaRabbit]

Annoyign eh? The blue makes Big Dog so Sexy.

[alexmonty12]

Brad Wilk. I dunno if he changed it when he went into Audioslave, but if he did, it's his RATM set up i'm talking about, i have mine like it at the moment

[[Fonya]]

I love Chad Smiths setup. If I were to copy one setup exactly, it would be his.

[Massik Kretal]

Pearts red superstar OR his white ludwig kit.

Eh I didn't really like the red one that much, it got on my nerves somehow. lol

[Mr.Kenny]

My favorite set ups are Jimmy Chamberlin (my set up resembles his the most, at least with the order my toms are in), Danny carey, and Tim Alexander.
