ADAM Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Ermm, screw the chrome job tbh.... Dundee Radio 1 chrome > acrylic ...and look at the size of that bass drum.....or is it just the angle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zilcho Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 chrome > acrylic I agree, it looks nice enough though. I think the white hardware suits it well. ...and look at the size of that bass drum.....or is it just the angle? What's wrong with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAM Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 I agree, it looks nice enough though. I think the white hardware suits it well. What's wrong with it? It looks huge! I thought he used a 20" (It may be an illusion though!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zilcho Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 It looks huge! I thought he used a 20" (It may be an illusion though!) That would be a bit tiny though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabnit Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 To me, In a way it looks nice and smart but in another way... A bit tacky. But hey, it was their forst festival gig in the UK, Dom probably just wanted to look different Or torment us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rageagainstmachine Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 he uses 22" , and that kit in the pic is just awful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.:josh:. Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 i am pretty sure dom must have terminated his contract with tama in order to buy those clears. They were only released this year and namm and theyre not on sale to the general public yet. Tama don't allow endorcees to use stuff that can'tbe purcased by the general public. Portnoy was stopped from using them a little while back so i doubt tama would let dom use them, or the white hardware that can't be purchased.

:James: Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 what? Ludwick have been making Acrylic Kits since the seventies al a John Bonham. Besides, looking at them I'd say they are Orange County, everyone knows Dom has gone emo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Mamba Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Actually I think Chrome hardware would have worked really well with the acrylic, didn't notice it was white at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm, I don't know... maybe they'll be available shortly then. They're clearly Starclassic drums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6ixty_6ix Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 his contract with Tama has been terminated by the looks of it he's switched to Ludwig, stockholm syndrome US vid, the picture on muse.mu and now this, the acrylic set has been in ludwigs generations. started of by John Bonham as someone said earlier, looks pretty smart to me, altho the bass drum does look a tad pap and tacky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADAM Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 The acrylic kit is a Starclassic kit, I'm 100% sure. I thought so too! and I was quite suprised with how they sounded! They sounded alright....I thought the bass sounded loose - but it went really well with SBH and all the others..... and in KOC the toms sounded really nice! ...all from an ACRYLIC set!!

There'd be no point in making them if they sounded crap though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
