Call sweelee also they say they don't sell individual tom-tom's (gee that's funny.)

hmm.... i just got my 8'' and 10'' toms the other day, and i was pretty lucky to get them on the right model n colour.
try asking them to check their warehouse

just my $0.02

Hi starclassic, I have the luck of trying the 20" HH Jazz ride as well. To me, both me and friend who tried it instantly knew it was a ride to must-have if jazz is goin be a huge part of your drumming from now on. Its dry dark overtones jus kick butt totally, if there is a sale coming up, I'm definitely going to grab it man!

If you like, you can come try out the HH Raw Bell Dry Ride at maq's place (if he allows you haha) or at my place. I stay in the West by the way. Nothing beats a pair of solid hats and ride man in your arsenal!

 

[marcdadrummer]

haha my ride can come try anytime but now i so busy with school i hardly have time to even play my drumset!!!

plus mine would substancially differ from jimmy's new one as mine's quite old already and the patina has already developed all over the cymbal.

 

[starclassic]

waa... that would be awesome man....i'd love to try out that beauty
yea im building a Tama/Sabian Kit right now
ive got all the tama shells (8,10,12,13,16,22)

and my sabian (hopefully) will be

14" HHX stage hats
18" HHX studio crash
16"/18" AAX/HHX O-Zone Crash
16"/17" HHXtreme Crash

1 Max Stax (low)

So far ive got the 18" HHX Studio, and 3 Max splashes (and my B8 pack which im going to sell soon)

Very nice, starclassic.

Personally I'd go for the HHX O-zone.

twistedjoker: Most local drummers would want a full AK setup if possible, but Yamaha's prices are pretty steep and they don't even have stock half the time.

Yup I prefer the 4-piece setup. I find it more functional as compared to bigger setups for me, for now at least. Looks a lil' hard to reach but as long as you're comfortable with it, it's all good!

*salivates at Alvin's green goblin kit*

Really really dig the black chrome hardware and 2 floor toms! I've always loved setups with 2 floor toms. Got double the OOMMPH low end sound.

[lepak]

damn, sweet stuff guys. Enjoying the youtube vid

 

[Freakae2]

Hey alvin. Finally got the masters. Yours is MRP right? What most impressed you? My kick was what blew me away initially. But mine is a full MMP setup.

 

[alvinthedrummer]

Hi,

It actually arrived a few months back but I didn't have the space to set it up only until now. The projection of these 6 ply shells are just incredible...super sensitive and the tuning range is incredibly WIDE!!! The machining on all the metal parts (hoops, suspension mounts etc) are smooth, super slick and tidy.

Also, I think the hardware is truly unbeatable....puts all the uni-ball systems on all other major brands to sleep....the adjustability is silky smooth and MICROSCOPIC...I packed mine with a combination of 1000 and 800 series hardware....you?

 

[Freakae2]

I agree with you on the hardware. Only qualm is that the die-cast hoops make everything so darn heavy. I ordered mine with 1000 series booms. Save for the snare stand which is a 2000.
