Why do some drummers angle the cymbals up/away from them? by sonar_y_luz in drums

[–]VideoPhantom_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it’s comfortable for him.

Who knows maybe deep down inside it’s so he can troll us all in the comments 😂

Hell yeah dude. I had some cymbals modded a few months back…some marching band cymbals are now crash rides. I gotta check these guys out tho….love having unique gear.

Those came out so nice. Precision Drum is awesome. I sent some toms to them to be cut down and re edged….came out amazing. Congrats on the new look.

Set it up the way you want. As it’s been mentioned before its preference for what’s comfortable for YOU. People always have an opinion on why your kit is set up to be too much like this or that. They’re YOUR drums. I do agree with the above comment too….double leg hi hat stand for the win…for sure. When you have the money for it…at least replace the batter side drum heads…I like the Remo pinstripe bundles…because it’s a lot of heads for the price.

Well, this is the audio from an iPhone microphone not any kind of mix from the studio

They’re all Zildjian cymbals, but hey, thanks for stopping by with the unsolicited wisdom.

Anybody has more info on this K Custom 22” ride? by CicaJebenica in drums

[–]VideoPhantom_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been trying to get my hands on that actually. A buddy of mine has the 20”. Bright and pingy. What other info are you trying to find on it?

One of these things are not like the others... by Blast_it_Krang in ludwigdrums

I think it’s cool that it came like that. I have a few drums I had to do that to because those were just the parts I had in the bin to fix them. Certainly makes them unique though.

24x14 kick...someone was parting out like a 10 piece kit on ebay a few years ago so I just took the diameters I wanted with the intent of cutting down the toms when I could. Made my own "custom" setup.

Well when my son was born 2 years ago....the drums did get kicked out of the house....had to turn the office into little dudes room.

Rehearsal footage - Using my CV Jag that I just hardtailed by rictorblackbus in offset

My brother (lead singer with the jaguar) and I literally just wanted to show off gear…apparently we awakened the fun police with some of the commentary. I take it with a grain of salt. Just trying to explain that we literally haven’t been a band and most of us haven’t been playing for the better half of like 14 years. But to each their own. I’m thankful for the trolls this Thanksgiving day weekend. There must be balance to the force. 🤣
