Hi, new to forums, but I bought my Yamaha C200 Red Thunder kit in 1996 and it has toured all around Australia with me through the 00s when I was with Tim Rogers and the Temperance Union. Great kit, perfect for that band, and it put up with a lot of ROCK while being able to turn around and be a responsive jazz-style kit. It's on all the above mentioned band's albums, occasionally swapping out the original snare for a later model Premier.

Anyway, it's nice to find a forum that caters to us. I'm now living in Japan, but I'll have a look around some hard drives for pics of my lovely kit.

Seriously... If you have NOT been ripped off by him... Then you would probably be the first of his customers not to be....

There are some mentions of him in previous threads on here..

Cheers

John

Just an update on Atlarge &Enrico Fazzio.I DID receive a refund of $400 being for the deposit piad on the allegedly&supposedly "66-68" Ludwig 22 13 16 i swapped/traded the 20, 12, 14, for another Ludwig kit but a later "non-vintage" Epic kit in Bonham sizes.NEVER EVER will i both deal/do business with Atlarge Music Group(&there affiliates/groups/off-shoots) nor do i recommend anyone else do like wise.There's 100s of disgruntled&dis-satisfied &angry Atlarge customers on a FB group interesting reading!.He SHOULD be both closed down&put out of business for good! :(.

G'day lads, just found this Oz section and thought I'd chime in, since I'm a Sydney-ite and fellow Ludwig-o-phile...

Can't help you with those stands unfortunately, but we'll all keep a lookout.

Cheers,

Trev (Adam)
