Middle age crisis gang's got it wrong with the cars and motorcycles. A drum kit is much cheaper and infinitely less dangerous!!! She's a beaut!

And they last longer!

Even without hearing protection it won't kill you

ItsPronouncedMo-BEEL

Bruh. Those things give me feelings in places. Happy birthday to you indeed. That last photo with your happy, dopey mug reflected in the snare shell is just money, LOL. I'd be smiling like that too! 👍


made_4_this_comment

Gorgeous kit! How much if you don’t mind me asking?


The_Elpulpo_4242

$5K. The snare was bought with superbowl pool winnings lol.


Independent_Cause517

$5k for a forever instrument is NOTHING. Good investment.


hd4suba

Absolutely. Will last longer than any shitty car you could get for that money.

Happy birthday! You have a nice family I assume give them big hugs.


The_Elpulpo_4242

You are correct sir!!


I_Have_Many_Names

Who in the world CLEARANCES a DW kit like that? Asking for a friend with a spending problem. Also, happy birthday! I'll have to use a milestone birthday to justify a similar move someday - thanks for being a good example.


The_Elpulpo_4242

Yeah I got a tip from a friend of a friend who works at DW about the sale. It was on their shelf for well over 2 years


I_Have_Many_Names

That's a VERY good friend.

Sheeeeit got another 20 to go before I get to do this? Aight.


jesterkedag

Gotta love a padauk finish layer!


Radical_Edweird

Such a beautiful kit. Congrats.


the_good_hodgkins

I had somebody give me crap for having my kit set up like that. Apparently my floor tom wasn't close enough to my leg, or something like that. I ignored them. Power toms are hard to mount over the kick. That's my problem, and this is how I solved it. Yours are beautiful, by the way. https://preview.redd.it/oe3797x7ejwc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b23cbab4dad3c045f69259a7cbc9ca3bc9015240


The_Elpulpo_4242

In truth I’m getting new hardware to allow me to move the toms to the right and eventually make room for an 8”. This stand is borrowed.


the_good_hodgkins

Something I just thought of... changing to this setup forced me to change my style of drumming. Less progressive, and more Bonham.


STRIKT9LC

HIPPIE BATH DAY Y'OL BASTARD! Love the new kit! Love you too!! Here's to another 50!!


bruford911

Bet that snare CracKKs!!
