I actually quite like that kit, it's probably a damn sight better than mine. My school has a premier pedals, I've played better, but it's still good for what it's worth :)

umm.....You'll have to elaborate on that a bit for me, the "little flap?".

Here are the djembe pics i promised.....Which led me to take some pics of the guitars in the background...i know, i know, i'm a traitor:mad: ....sorry for living...

But seriously, here they are.

^It's a djembe...believe it or not...not a full sized one, but it still gets some cool sounds happening.^

Nice kit.I'm sorda a noob but y is it goth?

12-26-2005, 05:58 PM
That's what Premier Calls them.....I think it's to do with the finish?

EDIT: -And the black hardware?

-Taye-
12-26-2005, 06:01 PM
Cool.So if you have one that doesn't neccesserally mean you are goth?

-TheGlassPrison-
12-26-2005, 06:03 PM
well in the middle of the pedal, theres a circluar shape, and ive seen that it can pop up.
I dunno.


And yes, Goth is because of the finish and hardware.

-Taye-
12-26-2005, 06:07 PM
Okay.

Ahh i think i get yah.....In the middle of the pedal there is a toe stop, or something like that....All it does is get in the way...By "pop up" i'm assuming you mean "get rid of"....Which i did the day i got it:thumb:

---And no i'm not a goth, by no means do i take the blood of christian babies and use it to inscribe pentagrams or other satanic symbols on churches and schools--- (Anyone else seen that site?)

I had another question too.......umm...........It'll come to me...wait a page or two.

12-26-2005, 06:17 PM

your kit looks great and it sure looks fun to play. i like the purple finish with the black hardware and just a suggestion cuz i dunno if its easier for you but i would raise my crashes and maybe the ride if i were you

looks great! :naughty:

I had another question too.......umm...........It'll come to me...wait a page or two.

I remember now...
The Question: Since these kits are "Limited Edition", does that mean that it will raise in value? Or at least not drop as much when i sell it?

-And i like my crashes low..High crashes make me sick, sick like a cat in a swimming pool of wet dog.:thumb:

Any recommendations for what to buy next? I was thinking of a throne....or some roto-toms? Anyway, keep em coming!!!

Yes you will probably get more for it as it is a Limited Edition drum set

Your crash doesn't hit your tom or your hi-hats?

The position of your ride tells me you play open handed , am i correct?

Anyways like The Glass Prison said , the Janus pedal has a small board in the middle you can pop-up. This is pretty good when you play DB heel-up cuz your toes are locked in the pop-up thingy and dont shuffle their way up the board

I like these pedals a lot ,

Best double pedals imo are : Axis , Big Dogs , Janus , or Tama's and DW ofcoarse

No, you do mean the toe-stop. You just don't know it because thats the only toe-stop of its kind. I know what you mean.
