New Setup! Seeking opinions and hopefully aproval

[Parradiddle Pete]

AUDIO AND PICS OF FINISHED STAVE SHELL ON SECOND PAGE NOW!!!!!
Hey guys, just thought I'd take some pics of a new setup I have sorted out. I have moved my cymbals around so that my aux hats are in front of me with my ride in a more 'normal' rightside position, my china is now straight in front of me. I like this setup, though it is a little hard to get to the bell of the ride, its manageable and I like it equally if not a little more than my old setup. I hope soon (after the stave project) to get an Eliminator Remote Hihat stand and have my main hats in front of me, to make playing a little easier. There is also a little teaser pic of my stave shell for which I am still waiting on the hardware. more pics of that when its done ENJOY and please comment

Looks good but the eliminator wont work for that purpouse.

[Parradiddle Pete]

Seen the size of the shaft on it? I tried once and it just doesnt happen.

[Parradiddle Pete]

Damn, I could do with trying one out on my kit before i buy it lol, i think i could get it into some decent position. Could just cut a gigantic hole in the bass :lol:

[Drum Phil]

The DW9000 ones even worse before we go down that road :p

Just leave your x-hats there and keep your main ones where they are. I just realised, i had my x-hats in the same area once. Copy cat had a rat underneath his sunday hat. Im done :upset:

[drummerty]

Looks good bro. That kit is damn sexy. Love the color. Nice setup.

I'm still gonna look into it, I really like playing open handed like that. What are any other Remote hat stands?
I'm not sure if i understand your pic properly phil. any chance of one which just shows the remote stand and nothing else? Thanks man

[Drum Phil]

Sorry about the big pic:

Theres only the RH2000 or the DW9000 ones. The 9000 is even longer

Yamaha make one too.

[Drum Phil]

So they do. Thats about the same as the DW one for shaft length though

[Panopticon]

well he could always just move his hats up to fit that in...

[Drum Phil]

Yeah but that'd be uncomfortable

[MeaninglessPhoto]

hmm...Phill I thought you were banned? Or did you just type banned under your name?

But im liking that stave shell

[Drum Phil]

Haha i typed banned under my name and set myself to invisible :p

[MeaninglessPhoto]

[rockindrummer]

Looks good man. I'm digging the stave shell!

[-TheGlassPrison-]

Im excited for the snare.
I hate how your kits set up.
And im not huge on the Sparkle Fade.. meh.

[Parradiddle Pete]

The snare is done, but it sounds awful, we think we have nackered the wires with too much tension, I'm gonna get some new ones sometime soon though, looks bloody amazing though, pics soon

[Corkofski]

pics... NOW ****Er!

[White]

wow, thats the same set up as I ahve (drum wise, and thats incredably nice lol

[Parradiddle Pete]

Though there are now no snares on it i have some pics of the progress and of the finished item. It sounded awesome for a while and then the strings holding the snare wires broke and now it wont get a good sound, I'm buying some new snares on monday and I hope that will make it sound better.
Here are the pics

[Locke]

*Has a Feeling OCDP_boy won't last long here*

To the TS, Nice kit and nice set up :D

That snare is sex.

[Drum Phil]

Shame you bust the wires on that thing man.

[Parradiddle Pete]

Shame you bust the wires on that thing man.
And boy do i know it, sounded amazing aswell, I didnt seem to be able to get quite enough tension on though, then i jus went all out an i think that ruined them, the wires are ok to look at but they have gotten flatter instead of being like an over stretched spring

[3_times_round]

Nice set-up, but replace the cymbals!

Ouch, they arent exactly hard to replace though.

[[Fonya]]

[Jezen]

You are a moron. Do the world a favour and spend the next 2 hours slowly sawing your hands off.

[Half Life]

Nice snare man. That looks great :thumb: On the other hand, kit...no. That one floor tom has down syndrome or something.

[Quinto]

why do you have such a shiny kit + snare, but not shiny cymbals??

[drum_with_ease]

Love the snare!

[Parradiddle Pete]

Nice snare man. That looks great :thumb: On the other hand, kit...no. That one floor tom has down syndrome or something.
Its because the tom arm is a piece of crap. Eventually, I'll replace them both with something a bit stronger. The poition isn't so bad to play though :D

[Wizz]

=) nice !

[Corkofski]

i want to bone that snare almost as much as phils ex!!

[Half Life]

He got me some 12 strand 13" giralters and my snare now sounds absoloutly amazing. A very high POP sound with an earsplitting rimshot, I am soo happy
