once the brass ceases to glitter, and the drum looses its luster, and the stage remains dark, all you have left is the timbre of family.

Looks good. Mine was about as mint as it gets. There was no fade and the chrome was unreal. Not sure what's up with these blue agate kits. Most of them I've seen have been just slick as all get out. What sizes did you nab?

Very nice! Those are really clean looking. Makes things easy starting with nice kit. Very cool the wrap has no fade either.

Cool Gary. I skinned those two different ways. One setup was run as a jazz kit (with a 14 floor) and wore fiberskyns over Ludwig med. The other was a rock setup and wore coated emps over Amb.

Both sounded really nice.

ty im not too happy with that factory clip mount for the toms its very unstable, ill put more pics up as im done with each drum its so cool the color is very retro one of the nicest wraps ive seen, this could make me sell my downbeat just to play this and keep it if only i had a 14 ft ....
