My Kit Guys...

[Antifrootbooter]

Hey guys what's up? I'm not new to the forums...just new username.

Everything on my set pretty much is stock/beginner so bare with me. Remember, that doesn't mean I'm a bad drummer. Not saying I'm the greatest though. But anyways, I finally get a chance to post my kit so here we go!

NEVER try to make your own bass ports... doesn't affect sound much, just looks horrible....

Could anyone possibly identify this snare? It has no marking whatsoever on it. You can also see the Evans bass patch i used to patch up the tearing on it. Works pretty good, temporarily...

Thats it.

[Antifrootbooter]

No it's not. Forgot one last picture....


Just because they're amazing...

[stevensonmat2]

Whats with the saw blade???

[Antifrootbooter]

Cool little thing. It's pretty much like a bell. I know i'm not the only one that has a sawblade...

[stevensonmat2]

Its pretty sick looking. Sucks that your hat is cracked.

[static]

That snare definitely looks like an old Pearl to me.

[Panopticon]

You're toms are upside down but that's okay i can understand why you did it like that...but you could get the same effect right way up.

nice choice on pedals though. and i'd get rid of the bass patch...it'll come off soon then leave sticky stuff all over the bass drum head.

[MatthewMeredith]

Haha you need new heads badly. And how did you manage to crack the bottom hat? Other than that, pretty sweet looking setup. Specs?

[PandaDrummer]

wine red is the way to go man!
are those the gibraltar click pads?
if so then sweet
if not then sweet anyways.

[Drum Phil]

Can we get some decent shots of the snare. The lugs look to be pearl from back in the 80's

[ringworm]

NEVER try to make your own bass ports... doesn't affect sound much, just looks horrible....

Dude, I'm not being mean, but, is it really THAT hard to cut a circle?

[Antifrootbooter]

Yeah I will later. I'm at school now. The pics arent showing up here, do they still show up for you guys?

[Antifrootbooter]

Dude, I'm not being mean, but, is it really THAT hard to cut a circle?
Well, when you're using a compass with a knife and quarter way through the circle the head starts to lose tension to keep it in place, yes it is.

[Banshee]

Well, when you're using a compass with a knife and quarter way through the circle the head starts to lose tension to keep it in place, yes it is.
Obviously you take it off and cut around a template...:rolleyes:

[Stert]

beginner kit, stickers, all heads in bad shape, both snare heads are cracked, a tear in bass reso, beginner cymbals, hi-hat cracked, toms mounted upside down, cant reach slave pedal.

:eek:

[NCDrummer]

Cool little thing. It's pretty much like a bell. I know i'm not the only one that has a sawblade...
THATS ****ING AWESOME!

dude thats so sick! i was like "is that a ****ing table saw blade?"

[NCDrummer]

beginner kit, stickers, all heads in bad shape, both snare heads are cracked, a tear in bass reso, beginner cymbals, hi-hat cracked, toms mounted upside down, cant reach slave pedal.

:eek:
one of my toms is rightside up and the other is upside down! but i spray painted it so i can't flip it so i don't use it...lol

[MeaninglessPhoto]

No offense, but do you dip your drumsticks in white paint before you play?

[HeLLmO]

pretty good lookin', bet definatly get new head for those toms. those sawblades really are sick. they can also double as drum set defense devices. i'm gettin' a few soon, but i hope they still let me bring them when i do gigs at schools, because they may be douches and say that their weapons to cut ppl up with

[Sean]

Can we get some decent shots of the snare. The lugs look to be pearl from back in the 80'sDefinitely. My other snare's lugs look exactly the same, and it's an old pearl.

[Zildjian]

The snare is an old pearl for sure


The kit is sure been played on and thats good

[static]

Who called it?

[Drum Phil]

Shush up you.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v489/rancid_punk/Kit059a.jpg

Corrrr

[static]

/called it

[Drum Phil]

If it has lugs that look like them its a pro level pearl from back in the 80's when they were made in japan. The badges were glued on so thats probably why it doesnt have one.

[HeLLmO]

man, i want a big metal snare soo bad, except i want 14x8 brass. i almost had one at one point. 14x8 yamaha recording custom, george knows, i showed it to him. then some cunt came on ebay and payed a good price for it

[static]

*paid

Oh man, I remember that. The day you officially got owned.

[Berk]

Shush up you.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v489/rancid_punk/Kit059a.jpg

Corrrr
Omg, *Takes strainer off and puts Mount on and uses it as tom*

[Antifrootbooter]

Drum Phil, got your shots!

The reason for everything being so crappy is due to a lack of good income. I have no income at all for that matter cause I'm not old enough for a job yet. Soon though...

Obviously you take it off and cut around a template... Yeah I wish I would have been smart enough to do that before hand...

beginner kit, stickers, all heads in bad shape, both snare heads are cracked, a tear in bass reso, beginner cymbals, hi-hat cracked, toms mounted upside down, cant reach slave pedal. Correction - *CAN reach slave pedal. It's more comfortable where it is to me. I play what's comfortable to me, not you. Not to be rude or anything.

No offense, but do you dip your drumsticks in white paint before you play? Nylon tips?

EDIT: Didn't anyone notice my 14" Wuhan China? :eek:

[MeaninglessPhoto]

I never had nylon tips do that.

[Maggot Dream]

I have no idea how you reach your slave pedal, but whatever works. Although you might try some repositioning, you could find something you never thought would be comfortable.

[Antifrootbooter]

I had the slave pedal more aligned with my hi-hat stand until it slid back to where it is now while I was playing... and then I found out I like it more there.

[Maggot Dream]

It just seems like that hi-hat leg would be extremely inconvenient, but whatever.

[Stert]

^^^ as long as you can play it comfortaby. it is probably just the pics.

i can understand the income thing. im just starting to get a settup i want......expensive

[green242]

Well, when you're using a compass with a knife and quarter way through the circle the head starts to lose tension to keep it in place, yes it is.
Ok, I don't mean to be an *** or whatever, I hope I can laugh with you. But HAHAHAHAHA.. Did you attach a knife to a compass and try and cut a perfect circle, WHILE your reso is still on your bass drum. You must have rushed it, or been drunk, or hungover.. Something. That is funny

[Antifrootbooter]

Ok, I don't mean to be an *** or whatever, I hope I can laugh with you. But HAHAHAHAHA.. Did you attach a knife to a compass and try and cut a perfect circle, WHILE your reso is still on your bass drum. You must have rushed it, or been drunk, or hungover.. Something. That is funny Yeah... (Knife + Compass) + Bass Drum Reso Head still on = BAD. Should have thought twice on that one. I guess I could take it off and try to make the port a little bigger and make it look GOOD.

[HeLLmO]

*paid

Oh man, I remember that. The day you officially got owned.

i did, but i just joined a post hardcore band, and we're gonna cut a demo soon in a legit studio, so i'm gonna try to get an SJC endorsement, then i'll get my 14x8 hand hammered brass snare, along with a 14x5 hand hammered brass snare, and a 14x8 wood snare if i decide i need one

[static]

Sjc...?

[Antifrootbooter]

Question: If this was your kit, what would be the first thing you would make changes to?

[Disgrace]

Heads, pic up a set of Wuhan cymbals. Might cost $250..

[Senseless Apprentice]

Yeah... (Knife + Compass) + Bass Drum Reso Head still on = BAD. Should have thought twice on that one. I guess I could take it off and try to make the port a little bigger and make it look GOOD.

Yeah! You should totally do that. Take it off and use a template. Like a big can of chili.

[HeLLmO]

Sjc...?


www.sjcdrums.com

they're custom drums, just like conaway, i would go with conaway if i miss the endorsement, but having endorsements is just so much cooler. they're right out in dudley

[Antifrootbooter]

Heads, pic up a set of Wuhan cymbals. Might cost $250..
Well, I do have a Wuhan China... But yeah I have been getting interested in some Wuhan S series crashes and some hats. Anyone have good/bad experiences with them? Wuhan have rides don't they? I'll look.

Yeah! You should totally do that. Take it off and use a template. Like a big can of chili.
I think I might just do that soon!

:)

[drummguy731]

tom angles, anyone? haha, nice kit, but yeah, it looks like you use travis barker(makes cross with fingers) sticks.

[Antifrootbooter]

Nope, Vater Fusions...

Tom angles have to be like that for a certain reason....I'm a one-handed drummer.... Although I use both arms... I might make a new thread about it.

[Maggot Dream]

You might want to work on your aim. Wouldn't want to damage a bearing edge.

[Sabian4015]

Wait what???

One handed but two armed????

:eek: This is harder than my alegbra 2 homework!

[TheBigMachine]

Nothing is harder than algebra two. Except physics and chemistry and stuff...

Heads, pic up a set of Wuhan cymbals. Might cost $250..

Better yet, head's and a set of Paiste PST3. Lower end Paiste for the win.

[Antifrootbooter]

Wait what???

One handed but two armed????

:eek: This is harder than my alegbra 2 homework!

Yeah, I was born without my left hand. It cuts off about 3-4 inches past my elbow. Should I make a thread?

[drummguy731]

Oooo, Damn, Im Sorry!!

[Sabian4015]

Yeah, I was born without my left hand. It cuts off about 3-4 inches past my elbow. Should I make a thread?

:eek:

Dude I'm sorry really didn't mean to offend you, I was just doing alegbra homework at the time.

[psychedelic_liam]

Haha you need new heads badly. And how did you manage to crack the bottom hat? Other than that, pretty sweet looking setup. Specs?

Without reading on, i bet it was the top hat :P and he changed them over, justa random guess

[the_pure_drummer]
