I might aswell post a piece of planning for my kit:



I put toghther this model on Google Sketchup of what my kit will look like when 100% finished, which will be a long time.. if lucky then this time next year, but will mostly likely be another 2 years or so. lol  

Its quite a biggy, as you can see.. and like ive said before, its based on Mike Portnoy's left side of his kit.

Once its finished, I will find it alot easier to play. Cos on my kit atm, I feel very limited to what I have. The style I play involves alotta sounds and variety, (which I must of picked up from playing Progressive Rock and Dream Theater all the time   )

But yeah there we go, The 13 Piece Metropolis. I can never imagine myself playing a 4 piece kit.

Alrighty guys, my kit is really coming along.
Got a ton of new parts, and hardware. Now, heres the tour of the kit so far, Its been dubed The '12 Piece Concoction' for now.


Heres a view of the full kit, as you can see, its quite a beast. But its still my ikcle baby 
Many bits of it are either still being worked on, or are temporary parts and will be replaced later....
Its a part Mapex kit and part Performance Percussion, and I am planning on converting the kit to a full Mapex kit sometime in the future once all other work is done.

Anyways...
2 Snares: Main One, 14"/7", 2nd Snare - 14"/5"
Two Bass Drums, Both 22"/16"
Toms in order are - 10"/7", 12"/10", 13"/11"
Floor Toms: Both 16"/16"
Rototoms: 6", 8", 10" 


Those bass drum pedals are temporary as they are total shit, LOL, but, ill be getting some Tama Iron Cobras soon, for other drummers who know what that is.
Also, the far left Snare which is the 2nd Snare is tuned slightly higher and I normally keep the wires off, so it sounds like a high tom. Its got a Remo Legacy LA head on which is rare and not made anymore 


These are two temporary parts to tell me in future where the new parts will go. The left will become a 2nd hihat, 14", remote pedal. And the right will become a MP Max Stax Cymbal, 10".


I managed to get that Snare, which is a Hohner Perkussion Steel Snare from Portobello Martket in London for £15, it was all rusty, so I took all the rust off, re did alot of it, fixed it up and covered it up all up with a black covering from my old old Snare which was craaaaaaap. But this snare sounds great, its very clean, and the sound is great. But its still not 100%, lol.


Those are my favorite sticks, Zildjian 7A sticks with round tips. Perfect for me, light yet strong.


Mapex Drums r awesome. ;D


Overhead shot, was difficult to do cos I was standing on a chair while holding the camera above my head.. took me a few attempts, but finally got a good enough shot.

Also, the cymbal layout will change to how its layed out in the plan above when everything is bought.

Compare how my kit looks now to how it looks like when I posted it on Page 1 
Give me comments, tell me what you think. Also - and this message is for Troy -, a video of me playing this bad boy will be posted soon when I get recording.

As far as I know, its me Kaltsu and Troy who has a drumkit, and plays   :conf: I could be wrong.

Also, is this topic supposed to be in forum games? Im a little confused.. cos this is more of a discussion and photo posting, than a game. Meh  :trust:


I got a new bass drum pedal today, but only got one.. so I still need to buy another one for the other bass drum.
Its a Tama Iron Cobra Power Glide, absolutly fantastic pedal and top of the range  :evil:

It cost me quite alot for one pedal alone, but personally I think its worth it because this pedal's feel is just out of this world.. its so freakin smooth and EVERYTHING is adjustable! Best pedal ive ever used, and favorite so far
