El Zilcho Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 im starting to hate mine. Too small for my foot! Lol I wonder why they haven't started making differently sized pedals for smaller/bigger feet. Or why not make the ground plate adjustable and offer a selection of various foot plates?

Or why not make the ground plate adjustable and offer a selection of various foot plates? Actually, I think they might do that for DW? Not sure though. Or... you could make your Iron Cobra a longboard pedal..? Haha, and I made this crappy video the other day... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gda00NrALrk It's sort of hard to play while filming!

Assassin231 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 OK. I decided, I know I can get a good sound out of decent acrylic drums. I love playing drums. And as much as I love playing drums, I also love the look of drums. Its not because I want to "look like dom". I simply love them, and I dont care what anyone thinks, its not your money so please don't dig at me. Kirchhoff Drums. - I read an article, and I found them by chance on Thomann. Apparently Tama and Sonor have taken their ideas from this brand. They are said to sound amazing and ive checked out sound clips online. The drums are nowhere near as expensive as Tamas Starclassic Mirage, and its easier to customise a kit online for cheaper. heres the spec kit I wanted to get. 14.5 x 5.5 Snare 12 x 9 Tom 14 x 14 Tom 16 x 16 Tom 22" Bass Drum The hardware is not supplied as I am buying all of the drums seperately, so I was thinking of Gibraltar or Tama hardware. I just wanted to see if anyone had any experience with this make of drums? The spec above will cost me roughly £1200 P+P. Heres a link to an article on Drummer's Digest: http://www.drummersdigest.com/en/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=245&Itemid=29 And Heres a link to an audio sample of the kit: http://www.drummersdigest.com/audio/kirchhoff/22x20.mp3 its obviously alot of money, so sorry for repeating myself but I wanted to make sure that its worth it 100%.

Spyke Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Except for the Bass drum that looks really good! Seems like good value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niles Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) Acrylic hoops?? Wow, I've never seen that before (I don't think it's a very good idea though). I doubt that Tama got their ideas on acrylic kits from those guys. All modern acrylics are the same (no joke, every shell, except Sonor X-Rays and those ones, is sourced from one of two major manufacturers), which are pretty much copies of the original Zickos shells, with some much needed structural improvements. Those are even better than Tamas and en par with Sonors. Edited July 1, 2008 by Niles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 oi drummers! just spotted this on harmony central http://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2032404 i was amazed at that kit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niles Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) Tbh that looks pretty failure to me. Firstly it's a Mirage (read hideously overpriced Gold N Times shells), secondly the colour combo makes baby jesus cry, lastly it's got a billion times more components than a proper drum kit should. If Portnoys drums hooked up with Barkers, that would be their lovechild (a troubling image, no?) im starting to hate mine. Too small for my foot!
