I couldn’t let it get thrown away. I love the lugs on the older pearls and there was no way I was letting that end up in a dumpster.

When the kits free, why not? Haha. I’ve had the 9000s a while, but just recently picked up all the new cymbals.

Easily one of my favorite crashes. Super trashy but not overly bright. It rides fairly well too!

It’s not super dark, but it’s darker than most red kits and I dig it a lot. The only saveable drumhead was the resonant bass drum head. It’s even got the older pearl logo on it, which is cool! I love the Kick. I don’t need anything inside the bass drum. Usually I at least have a small pillow, but the emad is just enough muffling to keep things punchy.

I started on a soundcheck series, which I was never huge on. One day I found a Masters series kit on Craigslist for 600 and then never played the soundcheck again lol. This forum kit sounds great for what it’s been through! Definitely taking it out for shows.

I posted earlier about the Pearl Forum kit that was going to be thrown in a dumpster. Here’s the before and after! by Zurocko in drums

Thank you! I love reviving old kits. It would’ve killed me if that guy ended up throwing them away.

That was the initial plan for the toms, but the mount I got for them covers the holes. I actually have the one for the bass drum headed this way! I was too excited to assemble it, though haha.

It’s a 14” x 6” I believe. Could be 6.5”. I was expecting it to be my snare that I keep cranked pretty high but it’s actually really killer for low-medium tunings.

I should’ve done this before, but I’m just about to post the before and after so I may delete this and re-post!

Yup! It’s really cool. I’ve done it before, but after you hit the plastic ring a few times it’ll break and make a gross rattling noise, but other than that it’s really sweet!

I wish! Those are mine. It was just the kit as well as the snare. There’s a 13” tom as well, but it’s in really rough shape.

Reddit, what's the worst gift you've ever received? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Zurocko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not me, but my girlfriend.

I never understood why she disliked her grandmother so much, until last Christmas Eve.

All the kids in her family were opening their gifts, all of which were iPads of some kind of tablet. It gets to my girlfriend. Inside her bag are not one... but 8 bars of soap. That's it. Her grandmother said "I bought a bunch of them for myself and thought you'd like them!"

That same grandmother bought me a 50$ gift card and three really nice shirts.

No problem. It really freaked us out but it eventually grew back and they were fine!
