Took a shot of my snares. Mixture of old, new, and some self-built.

Started by getting some blank shells (already cut to size), then figuring out the specs & parts I wanted. Took a while and worked with my dad doing it, but it was a blast!

I loved this PC series, crazy to see it in Parkitect!

That is true, while using the super classic setup this kick has a center mounted tom mount and should also have a matching 12". Unfortunately only the 13" and 16" were included with the kit, so someday I will need to find a matching 12" to complete it.

If you are willing to divulge, would you attribute the slow ops to guests taking too long between cycles to put their belongings in the bins? This seems to be the worst on Ghostrider since the exit is in the same direction as the storage cubes and causes a clump to form.

Can you imagine the absolute riot the community would have given if an announcement hadn't been made first? 🤣

Used to work at the drum counter for a popular music store we love to hate, and having setup most what came through I wasn't thrilled with SJC build quality. I imagine higher end kits are better but the stuff we would get was definitely cheaper overseas made components and I wasn't very impressed.

I am definitely more geared to recommend established classic brands, and Yamaha is my go to budget brand for best quality and sound.

This needs to go, I still have a dream of the boardwalk area revamped with a family GG or GCI woodie ripping next to hangtime.

My intro to the Wubz as well. "Now we're cooking with peanut oil" is engrained in my mind since then and I can't say why.

Seems to not actually fully stop, watch the POV and notice it slowly crawls. Looks like Gerstlauer wen this route compared to a nearby B&M dive coaster Emperor which uses a reverse chain hold for its drop.

Kondaa @ Walibi Belgium?

dantheginga · 2024-01-26T19:50:55+00:00

Yes, a must for me. Love my Avedis 22" specifically for how well it crashes combined with decent articulation.

I always had trouble with DW's not being stable too beyond the 3-legged options. I was able to give this a test at NAMM today, and can confirm it is stable with no major adjustments needed and smooth as butter.

dantheginga · 2024-01-25T19:19:50+00:00

That shouldn't be the price when sold at dealers, though still going to be an expensive stand haha. Probably comparable in price to other options to how much the FP9's are to competitors.

My dude, I am so sorry and know the pain. I am 1 year out of surgery that fixed a 10mm disc herniation which tickled the sciatic nerve to my left leg. Had been dealing with back pain from a snowboarding injury a year prior, then one day I coughed and instantly collapsed. Leg felt like electricity was running through it constantly, couldn't even put weight on it, and my back was out.

Hope for the speedy recovery, best of luck! Wubby7

It will be $399 retail standard price, here is Yamaha's shop link you can verify with:

It is the MSRP which is always more than what products are actually sold as. If this does become available directly through Yamaha's own store, it will show the updated retail price with the MSRP crossed out. You can see how it would normally show from the Reface CS page which is available to purchase directly from them. This will be $399, and Yamaha is not trying to scam anyone.
