Gege Di Giacomo WHAT DRUMS IS HE PLAYING?

Loading...

Hello

Can anyone tell me what Drums Gege Di Giacomo played. Here is a great clip [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuPVVeA8630&feature=related[/ame]

I thought he would be using Italian drums like Meazzi Hollywood, but I do not think they are.

Meazzi Hollywood TronicDrum set -1968. / Leedy Shelly Manne outfit Mahogany bepop set -1965 (matching Mahogany Snare). / Leedy Shelly Manne outfit Maple big band - 1964 (w. COB Shelly Manne snare)./ Remo Gold Crown bepop set - 2009 (plus additional 20 BD + 16 FT). / Alberti COB snare (1959) /
Meazzi Hollywood COB Snare (1969) / Premier Royal Ace snare (1968) / ASBA Copper Snare (1980) / Rogers Dynasonic snare (1967) .

I have just been told that he is using ALBERTI drums in this clip. Not 100% sure if that is correct. Anyone know?

I was also told he did switch to Meazzi Hollywood sets in the 60s.

[COLOR="DarkRed"]Very cool clip !

I would have to bet the bank that he had old UFIPs of some sort....maybe Zanchis or Ajahas or Bellottis, or the pyramid-stamp UFIPs ...something like that back then.

All Italian-made, most in the Pistoia area....

Impossible to tell from the video.[/COLOR]

Gege was a big fan of Louis Bellson.

Anyone played Alberti Drums?
