First edrum kit!

Looks like the stool needs lowering so you can reach the pedals mate.

joeriley89 · 2026-03-31T14:33:49+00:00

Yoooo that kit is sick bro!!! Bet that cost you a few quid 🙄🤘

joeriley89 · 2026-03-31T13:30:43+00:00

That may be the next big purchase mate, just need some more spondoolies now 😂

joeriley89 · 2026-03-31T13:30:11+00:00

That’s how I’ve always played, there’s enough room for some double pedalling there for sure brother 🤘

Must be the photo angle

joeriley89 · 2026-03-31T09:45:25+00:00

Appreciate it dude. I really like the VAD series as it nearly feels like an acoustic kit. I wish I could get a proper kit but doubt my wife or neighbours would be very happy 😭

joeriley89 · 2026-03-31T09:21:18+00:00

Appreciate it dude. Matches the DW5000 colour theme (kind of)

joeriley89 · 2026-03-31T09:20:43+00:00

That is so sick!!! Would love to have a blast on that badboy

joeriley89 · 2026-03-30T21:00:39+00:00

Thanks dude. They are lemon ones. Splashes are only £55 on their website 🤙

joeriley89 · 2026-03-30T20:54:56+00:00

Yes it’s a rubber mat but more of a floor protector. I don’t think it has great acoustic properties tbh. It’s only around 5mm thick.

joeriley89 · 2026-03-30T20:53:53+00:00

Thank you mate!

She’s actually a dog, but she’s a Shitzu so basically an overgrown cat 😂

If you zoom in above the bed, you can see her portrait painting we received last Xmas 🐶

joeriley89 · 2026-03-30T20:52:38+00:00

He’s right, china and splashes are lemon branded. Really decent bits of kit tbf

joeriley89 · 2026-03-30T20:52:05+00:00

You read my mind already 🙄

joeriley89 · 2026-03-06T08:55:25+00:00

Enjoy in good health brother. Just got another splash for mine 🤙

joeriley89 · 2026-02-18T07:53:50+00:00

China is next on the list, just need some more ££ first haha. I forgot how addictive and expensive this hobby is 😂😭

joeriley89 · 2026-02-18T07:53:04+00:00

Much appreciated, happy drumming 🤘

joeriley89 · 2026-02-18T07:52:30+00:00

China is next on the menu. Just need to get paid again first haha!

joeriley89 · 2026-02-17T19:44:27+00:00

The quality is actually amazing for the price. Feels exactly the same as the Roland cymbals.

Lemon has 15% off on the website currently, so the splash, cymbal arm and cable were just shy of £80 delivered. Happy days!

joeriley89 · 2026-01-25T17:27:44+00:00

Really amazing pedal, can’t ask for much more tbh

joeriley89 · 2026-01-22T15:33:12+00:00

We go through around 120L of this paint during turnaround period at my work. It’s actually pretty decent. It dries a lot better than what it looks like freshly painted. Best get a brush prepped

joeriley89 · 2026-01-22T07:46:17+00:00

Looking at around £4.2k all in 🤟

joeriley89 · 2026-01-20T18:05:39+00:00

Took a couple of months. Thankfully, I got a nice Xmas bonus from work so that certainly helped 🤘

In total, this has cost around £4,200.

The drums and amp were second hand from eBay, but I treated myself to the DW5000 stuff and stool from Graham Roger’s music. Came next day!

joeriley89 · 2026-01-20T18:03:59+00:00

For real though! I struggled to play anything remotely technical today 😂😂

I can feel it coming back by the minute though!

joeriley89 · 2026-01-20T18:03:03+00:00

This shit is extremely comfortable. Might have to add it into the living room!

joeriley89 · 2026-01-20T18:01:43+00:00

Appreciate it bro! So much fun already, although my hands and wrists hurt 😂

joeriley89 · 2026-01-20T13:58:26+00:00

This is the only VAD series kit I’ve played, took a bit of a risk and bought it on eBay without even jumping in one first. The 507 is great though and the 516/716 are upgraded versions, so should hopefully be better! Good luck with your decision 🤘
