Just re-tuned my entire kit, with new heads on the toms. Enjoy.

Is that an IC? I have a DW 7000, I was thinking about getting an IC but now I really want one, do you like it?

[Drum Phil]

Holy HHX

[Talos]

Whoa! Your cymbals are dusty :lol:

Shouldve bought Coated man. But cool

[We_Love_Lime]

Looks nice. Specs on the snare? Hell specs on the whole thing por favor.

[Talos]

Its a Ludwig Accent I think..

[_Austin_]

How are those two HHX crashes? they sound amazing on the sabian site. Never got to try one out for myself though :(

[Pleaseme]

HHX are teh boner. That looks pretty cool- are the heads emps or ambs? Sorry if thats a dumb question, I can't tell from the pics.

[Drum Monkey]

Nice is that a DW snare? mmm... HHX!

Looks good! :cool:

[Zildjian]

[White]

pretty wicked looking, im liking it.

[The Leper Messiah]

Whoa! Your cymbals are dusty :lol:

Why should he have bought coated heads? Clear heads are just as good as coated heads, it's all just what kind of sound you want.

Awesome kit man, and setup perfectly.

[aznriceball]

cuz coated look cooler :p but the set looks great, and that hhx is getting me all high over here.

[Lageris89]

The cymbals are placed a little too high for my liking but I love the sizes of the toms

As for your comments... I greatly appreciate them, I'm glad to see that so many of you like my setup. About the heads, I chose clear because I wanted very defined stick attack (plus my last heads were coated), and I just wanted something different to use seeing as this is my first tuning job without RemO Rings (which worked out very nicely). I intend to get coated Emperors next time around. Also, the HHX cymbals are absolutely amazing, and I know they all need a good cleaning. Mind you, they don't sound exactly like the soundcheck on Sabian.com, but that's to be expected. There's also a sweet HHX 22" Groove ride at the local shop, and I waaaant it. Thanks again for the feedback!

I noticed in the photos they look a lot higher than they really are. In actuality, they're not a foot higher than the rack toms.

Nice kit man. I personally just picked up a full set of batters and resos today from Ostaneks (local store to all you outsiders:p) I got coated G1's over clear G1's and Coated G1 for over hazy 300 for snare...NO MORE HYDROS!

oh yeah...i tried out that groove ride too...haha i cant say i like it too much....i much prefer my k heavy:cool:

[jalel]

Man I love blue finishes, looks great man:thumb:

[rockindrummer]

Awsome kit man. Those HHX's look super sexy, along with the look of fresh clean clear heads.

[santi3hg]

i prefer clear heads, im not to sure why but it really sucks when they get teh air bubbles.

[Chester]

damn, that kit looks good, realllll nice

[drummerty]

Sweet little kit there. Nice clean setup. Looks fun to play.
