[spinninsticks]

Jeepers I know you did your part, guess lost of control was too overwhelming LOL! Mel I'm sure I'll have loads of fun playin with the elims, they just look so good lol.

Managed to take some photos this morning after spring cleaning.

OT: Also gotten the hybrid Ks from yamaha music plaza after listening to Alfe's advice and loads of testing.

Reuben, your turn with your Virgil sig !

Now I gotta start eating grass to fill up the big hole in my wallet.

 

[reuben]

haha.. i guess its my turn.. nice throne anyway..

K hybrids are beautiful..


here is the virgil snare anyway

 

[jeepers]

Wah fierce.

Spinninsticks: Does the ride have a sexy sexy crash? I'm a sucker for crashable rides.

Reuben: Tuned that baby to your liking yet? And man, I should've gone up with you leh, then Spinninsticks wouldn't have gotten the Elims. :twisted:

Get angry and throw your reference snare at me please! :mrgreen:

Kidding, kidding.

 

[mel80]

spinninsticks:
Dayummm! The K hybrid hats look so gorgeous don't they? Have fun discovering the different tonal qualities of the surfaces. I like your drum throne too! Enjoy playing with the Elims man.

reuben:
Woahh the snare's finishing is damn chio loh! *slurps*

 

[spug2guitarist]

holy fish-poop!! i went to the wrong swee lee with my dad... in the end we went to blackwood.. haha!

 

[Frummer]

*cough Spinninsticks showoff *cough...hahaha jk.

Nice hoots. Composer of Requiems, our purchase quite similar haha...Damn it didn't occur to me to get good cowbells!Damn!

 

[starclassic]

Ey Reuben... i see you've got a replacement for your portnoy snare there, nice buy man...give some reviews ok..
btw i ordered a bag for the snare already from nigel, should be arriving soon, hehe... love that snare man

 

[spinninsticks]

Eh bro frummer you can't just deprive this poor soul here a little showing off man, everyone gets their turn. Heh.

The virgil sig has a lovely finish man, I bet it sounds damn good, reuben I wanna whack on it! Hahah :mrgreen:

Jeepers actually it was one of the 2 reasons why I finally settled for the ride, the crashing quality of that baby just floats my boat lol, but I've yet to see its full potential yet so reviews of it is still on hold.

Haha yea man Mel I'm really glad I gotten the hybrids over the other alternatives I had at that instance and did not regret this purchase. It's a real jem..

 

[kari_convention]

i wonder if that India guy's uncle manage to get the Elims and Tama IC beater.

 

[andthevipersaid]

i just have this to say



YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
hehehehe...but u know what? the BB showroom guys was offering me the pedals for $460 which he reserved for me...like i could just have gone picked it up....the elims at the sale were $430.....LMAO...funny as hell...and nope...didn get the beaters
=(

but yes...im happy! yayness!

 

[spinninsticks]

Glad that you gotten your elims.

And did you mean that the elims were priced at 430 for the warehouse sale ?

I'm not too sure about others but I'll definitely not go through the trouble of queue-ing for 2 hours plus if the difference was just a mere 30 bucks.







PS. the price of the elims at warehouse sale was approx 300 by the way. :mrgreen:

 

[andthevipersaid]

wtf? are u serious? could u please verify? cos my uncle has the bill...if anyone could verify the cost of the elims with a bill i will be really grateful...thanks

 

[heavenbjorn]

I dun think is difference of $30 bucks... I was there and there was one Elim which was priced $460. I was really surprised that there was still one more Elim even after 5pm, but eventually i realized that it was the slave pedal with the connector, not the complete Elim set Which explain why nobody grab it.

 

[Frummer]

spin...shouldn't have mentioned it man...u officially made the thread alive again! hahaha..

PS: take a pic of your receipt =P

 

[andthevipersaid]

nah man...i dont care anymore...its kay...i have the pedals and thats that. thanks a bunch for the guys who helped...
