is it not a little to loud n clear for home...?

Kinda, 5-0 came like twice already, hahaha.. But everytime I play, I'll try to like shut all the doors and windows.

to twiztedjoker: hey what ride are you using?

I bought a K custom medium ride a while back, quite versatile but more towards the jazz side I think. But it doesn't really go with my A custom projection hats... I've got an Avedis fast crash... don't know what other crashes to get.

 

[kari_convention]

u should get 18" K Custom Dark Crash. i love mine to death. recently, i use it as a ride for an acoustic setting. it is a super versatile crash in the market now!

 

[jeepers]

psplayer: What's your setup and what kind of music do you play? Rock?

 

[twiztedjoker]

plsplayer ooh. I was considering getting those hats...well i'm using a K custom dark ride, they kinda fit it really nicely into my set up. like kari_convention said, you must consider getting a k custom - you'll find yourself having a similar set up to mine

 

[plslayer]

Umm I play like anything really... not that pro so whatever I can play I play. But more rock I suppose and Christian music. Yeah but I like jazz, just that I can't play it well.

Here's my kit.. I rearranged it last night and threw in my latest additions! Found an old cowbell that I got from rankin like 4 years ago and threw it on. Threw in my DW5002s that I just purchased from a softie a few days back too!

From left:
14" Avedis mastersounds
10" K splash stacked on top of 17" A custom crash (Lack of space + lack of stands haha)
15" K dark thin crash
19" Paiste Dimensions Med-raw crash
20" K custom medium ride

Snare's a 14x5 phattie maple.. lost my 14x5.5 yamaha maple custom due to unforseen circumstances but that's another story altogether

Better remove that price tag on your splash before gunk gets too hard to remove!

[plslayer]

woohoo alvyn finally someone who uses the same ride as me. I've had no luck trying to find any artist who uses the k custom medium, so haven't heard how it sounds in recordings

 

[myner]

like the kit. don't like the tom angles.

don't you find it hard to play?

 

[mcsteamy]

pretty easy actually! you should try arranging your toms like that when you're free. the rolling etc will be easier and fluid haha thanks for the comments dude

 

[Nike]

Mcsteamy, your kit is the sex!

 

[lester_music]

McSteamy..

Your kit is steamy...

Better remove that price tag on your splash before gunk gets too hard to remove!

I tried removing before already, and from the initial pulling off of the price tag, I got the feeling that it'll leave gunk on it But its ok, this splash setup's temporary until I find a way to mount the splash properly on a seperate stand!

 

[jeepers]

Sweet Jesus, look at all these kits. Sexy-as-hell pies and snares.

Alvyn: The longer you leave it there, the more gunk would be left behind. Right...?

 

[RudimentalDrummer]

Jeva, great job and well done Re-Wrapping the Kit..........nicely done. Looks great !

 

[myner]

wooh... love the jEva's wrap. how did you go about doing it?

 

[Desperate Angel]

I think some of you might have seen this kit in the one of the previous pages, anyway, i added a cymbal just beside the left tom. .

It is a Zildjian K Custom 17" fast crash, which i bought during the sale in Yamaha Plaza Singapura.

Anyone here using the same cymbal? Mind sharing your opinion on your K Custom 17" (or other sizes) fast crash?

For me, it doesn't sound exactly like what i heard on zildjian's website, but for me is still not bad. It sounds nice as a ride too, so i actually considered it as a crash / ride.
