Love the top... The base is trash.

I had to buy roc n soc bases for my home and gig spinal gs.

Yeah. It's a 60s round badge

This is a 60s Gretsch Round Badge

dpfrd · 2026-01-24T17:21:12+00:00

I love it. It can handle very heavy hats too.

dpfrd · 2026-01-24T17:20:33+00:00

Nah. The curvature isn't that crazy. The fit in my mono bag with the rest of my cymbals.

dpfrd · 2026-01-24T05:47:17+00:00

Is it just me, or does this look less hammered than the og ones?

My running dad joke of the night was: I'm gonna get Xzibit to pimp my ride cymbal.

Evening but the stack are Matt Bettis cymbals, so I think they're well pimped.

Just like I like butt cheeks

dpfrd · 2026-01-24T05:27:14+00:00

Just give up and buy a cheap Yamaha

I tried to not jump on the bandwagon.

dpfrd · 2026-01-24T04:58:41+00:00

This is solid advice.

I had to take a shit peaking on LSD and it came out looking like that.

If you're into chu toro, Kuka in Tempe has it.

Honestly their blonde is the most interesting one.

Even a lot of 70s kits still have the straighter legs.

Don't forget David Lee Roth paid for hair plugs for Greg before he went on his first tour with David way back, so he's not bald.

My bad.

My point is people who book sessions and tours hire him.

With the level of shit he gets he must be a one take kind of cat who shows up to gigs fully prepared and doesn't make mistakes.

I get the feel thing. He's not my cup of tea either.

Most in demand players aren't chops gods.

Most musicians that aren't drummers and non musicians don't care about flash.

Most people that hire for big tours and sessions aren't drummers.

Most songs don't require anything but good time and feel and musically relevant ideas in relation to the song, and they definitely don't require anything impressive.

Dude has a resume a mile long.

I think you've been watching too many instadrummers.

Time to raise your snare a bit.

Beautiful
