Hey everyone, with Super-Tuesday being tomorrow in the USA, I thought I would give everyone a warm-up. You guys have been alot of help in the past with advice, so I want to ask you about the finish on my new kit.

Although I have it narrowed down I will still include all the finish choices.

I have decided on the Sonor Force 3007 All Malpe kit, I know some of you helped me pick the Gretsch over the PDP's, but now I have finally decided on these guys. I just feel they are the most bang for the buck, and I really love these drums to death. For so many reasons.

Anyway, happy voting.

sparkles are for cheerleaders and gay pride parades. lol


i don't much care for the sunburst. there's just too much yellow and not enough of the other shades. i'm starting to like the autumn even more now.

They all look good, but my vote is for the Autumn Fade. Sparkles are delicious too though, and not just for gay pride parades.

Go for the natural maple man. I've got a 3005 in NM. It's awesome.

Went Sunburst, because everyone has Autumn Fade (or Autumn High Gloss, as it used to be)

Damn, I had it narrowed down the Autumn or Maple, leaning towards maple, but that Autumn fade looks so damn nice, I am just worried I will regret having the fade because sometimes they look dated.

autumn fade is the best looking finish there. any person who says otherwise is merely having trouble coming to terms with just how wrong they are.
