A Blaemire super sensitive - Wow!

Jerry let me borrow that super-sensitive for a couple months, and I got to gig with it extensively. That was a snare that was really hard to give back to Jerry. CryBaby;)

Greg - If you told me that you quit your job and uprooted your family to move to another state just so you don't have to give that drum back... I would have understood! lol

The guy just does great things with Blaemire shells. Knocks me on my a$$ every time.

The Leedy, the Leedy... drool, drool...

Too many great drums to list here!

Leave it to me in your Will... I'm begging you man! lol Jerry, no BS, if that Leedy ever goes up for sale please give me a crack at it.

Jerry, next visit, would you take the time to post a few photos of the wrapped kits? And I want to see how the steel kit finished out!

Thanks for posting more pix of the ss and that 'to die for' Leedy. Those are some nasty snares man.

I know! It's a rare beauty. I've always loved those Leedy lugs. Classier look than the 'Ludwig classics'. Like right out of the 20's/30's/40's art deco explosion. I'm fond of all that stuff. If the Chrysler Building in New York city had lugs... they would definitely be Leedy's!

Yeah Jinx! That's what I'm talking about!

Mach lug Heaven. Where on earth do you find stainless steel drums with mach lugs??? Outstanding score. I have a steel kit up for sale right now that I'm already feeling sellers remorse over. It'll probably end up on consignment @ Maxwell's in N.Y. But I do love stainless steel. The citrus mod with the mach lugs is a dream-kit. Great drums, Jinx.

Thanx for posting those for me! Clapping Happy2

This forum is officially a better place because of the addition...
