Bigger and better things...

So after discovering that insert, i just pulled one off the now-concert-tom stagestar. It doesn't quite fit but it'll hold 'til dan sends a new one. I tuned it up and DAMN it sounds godly.... i just wish i had new heads instead of old junky ones!

As far as i remembered chippy was getting a whole 6 piece kit. so it would be 10,12,14,16 22 and 22?

Chippy569

03-24-2006, 05:42 PM

actually, 7pc.

the toms there are the 10x9 and 14x14

the kicks are going to be 20x18

still to come is 8x8, 12x10 and 16x16

this is how it's setup now:

lookin really nice there Chippy :thumb:

i love my lil ol 14x14" ~ best sounding tom on my kit :D

seems like youre gonna need some new mem clamps there. the TAMA ML12 mem clamp should fit those round tom & floortom mounts nicely :chug:

Chippy569

03-24-2006, 05:54 PM

thta's 'cuz they're tama floortom legs. actually, i'ma get the air-filled floor tom legs tama offers, those things are NICE. I like tama's cymbal arms and tom arms, but not their power tower rack. Hopefully before time ends i'll have all tama arms and stuff with a gibraltar rack... hopefully.

and indeed, my 14x14 is, atm, my 2nd favorite drum, just behind my kick :)

Wow Chippy those look very nice. I was wondering how do you use that e-pad. Because it doesen't seem to have a cord coming from it...

Oh and I love that snare!

Chippy569

03-24-2006, 05:57 PM

right now, it's just a practice pad.

in the future, it'll have a use, i swear. :)

and i love that snare too :D Pop!

Would a black dye on my drums give me that effect? ( i am sanding etc and laquring aswell!!!) Stuck on a refinish project!

Chippy569

03-25-2006, 12:09 AM

no, i don't live in the UK, do your own research for dye :)
actually i just haven't a clue.

the snare is a DW something or rather, 10x5.5 or 6 if i remember right.

i'm not at liberty to say how much the kit is for, but y'all can assume around 2,000

03-25-2006, 12:26 AM

yarr that is the best finish!! how do you do that? what's it called? i must have it!

Parradiddle Pete

03-25-2006, 03:22 AM

I notice you havent got any fancy mounts on the toms, just ones screwed to the shell, any reason why?. Your kit looks amazing man, cant wait to see it al together

03-25-2006, 03:58 AM

Holy sh!t, that thing is just beautiful man. Even though its only half complete, it just looks amazing.

knie

03-25-2006, 04:37 AM

Likewise. I can't wait to see what it looks like all complete and finsihed, with the matching bass resos. A beautiful setup nonetheless so far.

RIMS and all that stuff is overrated and waste of money. Thugs and someone else with a rockstar now can attest.

think about it. they had great drum sounds LONG before suspension mounts.

They have a double-thick gasget tho, to ensure no metal-to-wood contact.

well, it has "love" in english underneath, so i think he does
yeah, i know what it means :)

Chippy your setup is absolutely amazing and KEEPS getting better. Cheers =)

Isn't it? Quality finish you got there on those drums. Good to see how it's progressed over time.

Chippy569

03-26-2006, 12:13 AM

03-26-2006, 09:48 AM

You can take the mini kit out of the monster, but you can't take the monster out of the mini kit.
Today i had a jam with some church buddies, except it was only one of them since the others got called for work. Got 3 originals scratched out, perhaps i'll get them up sometime... we shall see.

It might be late, but if some you guys are interested in raven's work, you can contact him here, this is what he sent me in an email:

Dave,

Can you post a reply with my contact info in your post on MxTabs, I can't get registered to post and the admin have e-mail turned off. There seems to be a few guys that would like to get a set from me, so my contact info is e-mail: RavenCustomDrums@aol.com and phone (***)-247-2877. They can contact me either way for quotes etc.

Thanks,
Dan

(if you really want the area code, drop me an email or MSNIM at chippy4569@hotmail.com or catch me on AIM at Chippy569, but in my experience he checks emails regularly)

Oh, and hi from houghton, MI! i have a campus tour of MTU in a half hour. i'm excited! it's my dream college up here.

Wow, It took alot of time to get this far lol, but already I can see it will be definatly great. Also, Are you gonna stain the other drums black or not?

TerranCmdr

03-29-2006, 12:56 AM

no, they're being turned into electric drums.
