Specs on request....

[Parradiddle Pete]

N/ice one abandon! I'm loving it. Couple things to say: Nice bass reso, I had one on my paragon (soon not to be mine) And i loved it!!! Not feeling the thing with stuff over the ride, tried it once, couldn't hit the bell when i needed to!

Very sexy kit man!

[abandonthetruth]

the bass durm is pretty pro, .. overall, I dont think i'm liking the set up, ... i think i got to used to my old one .. and yea .. the ride bell is pretty easy to get, .. I don't know though, .. we'll see in the next couple of days.

[Win A Rabbit]

I gotta say, with a throne facing that way, I'm guessing you've got some major joint/bone deformities. Might wanna get that looked at. :lol:

Looks beautiful, man.

[Panopticon]

Sic, lets see the goods.

[ant_182]

Wow, your kit grows on me each time. I'dlove to take those crappy hats off your hands! ::P :lol:

[We_Love_Lime]

Audio?

Awesome Set.

[Zildjian]

Your kit really is secks. The cymbal collection always makes me say whoa

[goalieman92]

i like it better the way u had it to.

[TTTSNB]

Nice setup man. I'd personally take that small crash and move it to the right a bit, but thats just me.

[statdat]

put some cowbells and jamblocks there and ill be jelous

[Drum Phil]

Theres already some there

[abandonthetruth]

^^True that, .. some crappy no name cowbell and the LP red (low) jam block ... i also have an LP tambourine, which i'm just to lazy to put up. ... And personally, I'm kinda feeling my old set up too, .. get those rotos abck in there.

[MeaninglessPhoto]

Thats hot man. I actually like the setup a lot.

[abandonthetruth]

It's nice, .. but not practical enough for me, ... I find the 16" tom harder to incorporate into my playing when its on my left.

EDIT:

heres my old set up

[ComicalMischief]

How's the 1-up, 2-down tom setup workin for you?
I was thinking about getting a kit that only comes in that kind of set up...
Of course I'd try it out before I bought it, but I'd just like an opinion.

[HeLLmO]

i actually really dig that set up. i personally would like the ride a bit closer, but that is just me. give that set up a few days, and if you ain't feelin' it, definatly go back to the old one, because it's all about comfort

[Parradiddle Pete]

I have played one up and two down for like 2 years now, I love it, the only thing I might change to would be 2 up 2 down.

Yesterday, before I read this thread, I put my 14" to my left and slid the 16" in a litte, so i have 1 up 2 down (1 left, 1 Right) I'm gonna keep the setup for band practice, but I dunno if I'm a massive fan.

[CasB]

Hey that snare looks familiar :p

[abandonthetruth]

14x5.5 hand hammered copper? .... and thank sfor the comments everyone, .. keep 'em coming

Yup, got the same snare since 1,5 month or so :)

[fredd]

abandonthetruth:

How do you do that setup pic?

[abandonthetruth]

its a kit building program, .. I can't remeber what its called though, sorry.

[Brokensticks]

That looks very nice man, how does the AAX Crash sound?

[abandonthetruth]

Its killer man .. i love it so much.

[ofDooM]

I did that for awhile. great for tom fills I must say, I switched to 2 to my right cause It was taking up to much room..

[Inkstar]

Yo abandon, that kit is killer man. Only thing I don't like is the sparkle though. Or the orange. It'd look awesome in white sparkle!

But awesome kit anywho. Diggin' the left-side floor tom.

[fredd]

What's that kit building program called? Please someone tell me :)

[DrumIntoTheNight]

Is that a Yammie Flying Dragon double I see? What do you think of it?

[Jersey's Best Dancer]

Looks nice man, I like the finish.

[Drum Phil]

What's that kit building program called? Please someone tell me :)

Its just called kitbuilder.

[fredd]

But it's not the DW kitbuilder, right?

[Drum Phil]

No.

Its a program you have to download. And its actually called Kit Constructor. I got it wrong.

[fredd]

Do you know where to downloas it? I can't find it...

[Drum Phil]

No. It was a german forum.

[fredd]

Yay, I found it.

[abandonthetruth]

Inkstar ... I'm not a fan of white sparkles personally .. the orange is aweosme and suits my personality as well.


DrumInToTheNight - yes its the flying dragons .. chain drive .. amazing pedals, ..i reccomend them over anything else, ... I do want new beaters though.

Great looking kit. Very nice choices on cymbals, and that finish is purely sic. I don't like the tom to the left though. I've tried it on my kit and liked having an aux. snare there instead. Got more use out of the snare. But that's just preference, if you dig the setup than it's great.
