Clapping Happy2 Clapping Happy2 Clapping Happy2Glad it got the love it deserved! Looks amazing! Usually what I do for logo heads is just buy decals off of ebay and put them on my reso head of choice. Id love to see it all set up! Nice work!-Adam

Good idea on the ebay thing, that's what I was thinking of. The new reso came today, so you'll be seeing it all set up soon. Thanks again for selling me this great kit.

Looks great! I have a similar WFL kit with NOB fittings - has the same beautiful gleam to it.

Mostly done for now -- until I find a matching floor tom. Here is a nerdy video I made with some pictures and me doing a little improv jam: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7Ht6utS4LQ[/ame]

I have an ebay silver sparkle floor tom shell on its way, and I picked up the donor for the hardware today. Does anybody know someone looking for a 16" b/o badge 3 ply mahogany cortex shell? Because I'll have one available soon.

What do you want for it? I use these for bass drums on my jungle kits.
