Peter Erskine could play any set, and make it sound the same amazing way (I know for sure, he played two times in the past a Yamaha set of mine of medium quality, making it sond better than before). Anyway, this is a wonderful drumset
"The drums our jazz heroes played" I.e Gretsch hehe this kit sounds fantastic, but do you buy the USA custom or buy DW jazz series? I hear very similar tonal qualities out of both kits but find myself on the fence...I don't think you could go wrong with either, but I'm having had time deciding after hearing Peter give theses some serious justice!
Sounds great. I thought the jazz series was mahogany/gum? This is maple/gum. Also, does anyone know what cymbals Peter is playing? Sound so classic, so great!
I don’t think Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich played on too many 20” bass drum kits. Gene only played Slingerland...Buddy, many more, but mainly Slingerland and Ludwig. He didn’t like his DWs and got rid of them.
Are the Gretch shells made by DW now that they own Gretch? I know Gretch used to get their shell made by Keller which made them more of a custom drum builder rather than a true drum company.
He's with Tama now
LOOOOL
He was with DW for a day unpacking this set
Little did DW know...
These kits sound amazing
At 09:45 listening and learning about the pitch is an eye opener (the benefits of planting or not on the skins).

I was on the fence like you. They are almost identical. I went with Gretsch out of tradition. Both are very nice.
I've got a DW Jazz at my music school. And it's phenomenal. So easy to tune, sounds round and great, like a true jazz kit. I can just recommend it.
incredible

Why he don't show us the sizes of the snare, toms and kik, too?????
Why he went to Tama I will never know
Tama makes world class drums. Look at Star. No manufacturer comes close.
And they paid him more

The company and their skills of shell making have come a longggg way since those times..

Most companies have improved over the years, with technology..
@@roybeckerman9253 absolutely it’s a beautiful thing 👍🏼
Faith no more
What are the dimensions of the bass drum?
It's an 18" Diameter, I think it's 14" deep.
@@kirkmcconnor9861 No way, that's a 16x14.
@@vxla 9:25 he references an 18" bass drum
Kirk McConnor yeah I know but no way it’s 18. I’ve got an 18 on a lift and it’s much higher.

It’s pretty simple-Tama has a superior sound. Period.
Nahhhhh..... 😂
Disagree maybe Tama offered him more money and endorsement benefits
In an alternate universe, yes. I'm sure it does.
its a Gretsch USA custom with DW badges rip off DW bought Gretsch.

what ? everybody is right handed?
