Thanks.
So far they sound great.i've been hitting them alongside an old Ludwig 3 ply kit.
different sounds
they sound big,producing a very a round solid note and have amazing sustian.
way more projection than the luddys..they fill the room.
No doubt the smaller Cravvie bop kits sound sick.
Of course the ludwigs have their own vibe are great but sound a bit boxy and flappy in comparison.

Here are a few photos of my early 70's "Midnight Blue Pearl" Gretsch kit which is still being restored (need a few more parts). Sizes are 5x14 COB snare, 14x22, 8x12, 9x13, 16x16.

Here are some pics of my babieees.

I've also got some ludwigs in storage that I redid that are stamped May 31,1963!

+1 for the gretsch too. I'm hoping to pic up a small gretsch jazz set for this kinda jazzy girl i just started playing with.

LOVE my v-drums. bought out of necessity 10 years ago when I moved into an apartment. Once you dig into them and get used to it- more infinitely useful than I ever would have thought.

I should prabably be careful saying that around here though- there not very slutty. Kinda like saying you like the liquidchannel.

i got dfh superior a couple years ago and manage to fool a lot of people.

Blindside · 18th November 2007, 04:07 PM

Here's my Ayotte drumsmith set with my '70s Gretsch snare. They mate well together. Sorry, It's a bad picture, but the only one I got. I'm a little out of breath and a little tipsy. And you can't see the floor tom.

arizonadrum · 21st November 2007, 04:25 AM

This is a DW Classic set (mahogany shells) with a 7x14 edge snare and a dw ballad snare 10x16 on the side. sizes are 9x13, 16x16, 16x18 w/ 14x24 kick drum.

What venue is that? Reminds me of Edward Elliot Music Hall at Purdue University. I got to play a talent show there as a kid and this pic just put some MAJOR flashback memories on me.

it's a theater in Athens, OH......at the college there. not sure what the name of it is.

Classic · 27th November 2007, 10:21 PM

Pearl Masters Custom (maple), which was originally a 7-piece kit, but have since broken it down to a 4-piece:

Kick - 22x18
Snare - 14x7
H Tom - 13x12
L Tom - 16x15

Zildjian Cymbals:

HHat - 14" Top New Beat, A Custom Bottom Hat
Crashes - 15" A Custom, 16" A Custom Fast Crash
Ride - 20" Rock Ride

Wish I had better photos... kinda like owning a hot rod and not taking a photo of it by the lake.

How is the ballad drum.. I have not seen one yet.. does it live up to the hype!
I too have a kit with the Mahogany/Pop shells.. in similar sizes.. Here is a pic..

Also here is a maple shell kit.. both just fantastic drums..

your kits look great! i dig them both. i need to bust out a set up with two high. i just can't get used to the ride not being "right there".

the ballad snare is the shit. i love it. i'll try to post a sample of it.

arizonadrum · 30th November 2007, 01:39 AM

here is a pic of my ballad snare.

Very cool.. I haven't had a chance to mess with one up close.. but the concept is great and i love the fact that the legs are there.. so one doesn't need yet another stand!

I mostly play a 4 piece kit.. or 1 up & 2 down.. like you.. but occasionaly I will put up a bonafide 5 piece kit..

I really dig the mahog/poplar drums.. I have played some of the DW classics and they really are spot on sounding tubs..

When I get a minute I will open the samples of your ballad drum.. I need one of those for this weekend!!

I guess I will tune down and tape up the 8x14 Mahog/pop drum.. should get it done.

Thanks for posting..
peace.
