There’s something so calming about your vids, the music, editing, commentary, and tone just make your vids so unique. I can’t think of any music related CZcams channels that I find as wholesome, I can straight up watch these vids for hours.
@@lofi_bonsai I know he makes his own beats and stuff, he’s talked about it when talking about his Distrokid sponsorship. So chances are the music is his own music.
Your tour videos are some of my favorites of yours. Going through every piece of drum gear you have would prolly be a pain; but it'd be rad to check out
I’d love to see a tour of ALL your snares. If you’re like most drummers, you have more than people think you should, but less than you know you want.🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥
I have one as well. Really great cymbal. Perfect cymbal for those who want a good washy crash but still have really good stick definition. So versatile
That ceiling mount thing is genius. It’s so stupidly simple I don’t know why I didn’t think of that. Definitely saving this video for future reference for that!!
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 03/07/2020 (07/03/20 - USA) Cara, seus vídeos me salvaram nesta quarentena. Não entendo tudo o que você fala, mas é muito bom ver você trabalhando e fazendo o que ama. Congrats!!!
I also bought the same kit, blue sparkle finish like this one on Craiglist without any logos. The seller said it was a “Reuther” stencil kit by Pearl. I googled it and it seems correct.
Not a criticism by any means, I love your videos. This is just something to try out When your demoing a cymbal, hats, snare or even toms the use of the Herta & particularly the Herta Sweep are an excellent way to demonstrate of how the sound of the component integrates with the other parts of the kit in a crescendo.
I had a Gretch catalina virgin kit and Yamaha Power V. Sold both for an electronic drum kit. BEST MOVE EVER. Acoustic kits are like trying to keep a dying patient alive. lol
That crash sounds just amazing. Kinda reminds me of the vintage 16" Paiste black label 2002 that the wind orchestra I play in has. It even looks kinda similiar, it's just a tad flatter than yours.
I don't know if you have a video, but eventually, I'll have a drum studio in my house, and I'm trying to learn some organization tips for like storing cables and all our weird little drum things and keeping the area decently clean. I love your videos!
Can you do a studio tour in which you show us every kit you own at the moment. I‘m not that kind of tech gear head but I love to see others show their drums
The Saluda is really sweet! Loving that. The new set at the end looks like my old high school band room set. Ludwig with chrome over wood. Back in the day, they came with chrome dot heads. Wish they would come back with those. Looked great.
Those hats look and sound just like my 15” zildjian new beats. My dad bought them when I was a kid, and I inherited them. I find they mix a little better in the studio than live, but overall they’re great for pop and jazz sessions.
Thank you for finally making this, ive been hopping around videos from years ago and i’ve been wondering what kit you’ve settled on for now. Sounds great 🤟🏼
The roadpro hardware is the frickin best man!!! I've had a tama roadpro snare stand for almost 20 years now, and it is still going strong!!! I use it for my 2 drum set snares and my marching snare. It is seriously the strongest snare stand on the market right now!!!
Hi David. My name is Randy from Kansas City. Over the years I have picked up four of those drum kits. What I've enjoyed about them is they are the old Philippine mahogany. I was listening to your description but I wanted to ask, have you recut the bearing edges yet? Those particular shells love 830 degree or 45 degree inside cut while having a round over on the outside. It gives them a lot of punch and warm tone. Over the years I have taken Kitts like that and totally rebuilt them bye reworking the shells, hardware, and new wraps. Also, if you want a brighter crispr tone in the mahogany shells I have used water-based sanding sealer and put three coats on the inside and out after I cut the edges. That helps to again make the sound a little crisper and yet offers protection and a good sealed base when you would put on a good wrap. If you haven't done that yet, give it a try. You can find me on Brack Custom Drums on Facebook. Have a great weekend.
I have that snare! It is my main as well! in case anyone is as bored as me heres my main setup: Pork Pie Hip Pig Kit Mahogany, Red/Gold Duco finish 22x14 kick - Powerstroke 3 coated / Smooth white reso 16x16 floor tom - Emperor Coated / Ambassador coated reso 13x9 rack tom - Emperor Coated / Ambassador coated reso Gibraltar/Yamaha hardware Rogers Powertone COB snare - Pinstripe coated / Ambassador clear reso Zildjian 21" Sweet ride traditional Paiste 19" Giant Beat thin crash Sabian 14" AA Regular hats
Going by my own preferences, these toms have the exact right sustain length, as opposed to some of your other kits where they sound a bit too long for my taste. And the very first new drumhead I had ever bought (now 40 years ago!) was also a coated CS for my old Sonor snare :-) Other than that I only had a Sonor bass drum (also 20") with a Pearl pedal, some 'Morris' hi-hats for 50 bucks and a pair of bongoes as rack toms; Best Christmas ever! :-))
Hey david, out of all the shell packs you have, what makes you keep coming back to this unknown blue sparkle kit? Especially for it being the kit tour? Also a tour of every shell pack in closet would be awesome!
I've always been a Remo guy but a few years ago the guy at Guitar Center recommended the Evans EMAD 360 bass drum batter head. My kick has never sounded better.
And you *bought* the cymbal(s)?? I had believed you were being sponsored by Meinl! x-)) My very first crash cymbal was also a Meinl, a cheap 16" Streamer, followed by a 16" Raker. And yup, I believe you're right and your Zildjians are New Beat hi-hats, too; A friend of mine owns a pair and they sound very similar.
It's a "maxtone" drums from late 80s, early 90s... very popular at that time... other brands could be "turbo", "powersonic", same style lugs and sizes bass drum, toms, snare... Made in taiwan... Regards from brazil :D
Just noticed that you drive a Honda Fit. Great car. How many drums have you been able to fit (pun intended) in it? Maybe even a video showing how many you can squeeze in. For all us drum buyers.
Great video! But I've been wondering why do you use this cheap drumset instead of your more expensive drumsets like the tama. (Sorry for the bad English I'm french😂)
I'd say my favorite piece of gear is the remo black x snare batter head. it reminds me of avenged sevenfold's the Rev's snare sound, which has been my favorite ever since i got into drumming.
Whats your favorite piece of gear?
Hi hats
Also first
My drums 😂
Hi hats
I've gotta say the hi hats!
That rug really tied the room together.
And they peed on it
Obviously you're not a golfer.
Yeah because the rest of the room is hella boring.
And all along I thought it was the faceplate on the lightswitch on the wall that tied it all together🤔
RLB y is he not a golfer
You should build a "mega kit" out of all the drums, cymbals, and hardware you have. Also a "all of my drum kits" vid would be awesome as well!
Let’s see all your other kits!!!
Rdavidr closet tour 👀👀👀
I second that closet tour
There’s something so calming about your vids, the music, editing, commentary, and tone just make your vids so unique. I can’t think of any music related CZcams channels that I find as wholesome, I can straight up watch these vids for hours.
Right!?! Any idea of the song used in this video?
@@lofi_bonsai I know he makes his own beats and stuff, he’s talked about it when talking about his Distrokid sponsorship. So chances are the music is his own music.
Everything bro!!!👍especially the bass drum head 👊. Thx for the highlight 😃
The way you have your overhead mics mounted to the ceiling is extremely clean and satisfying. Excellent job man.
Your tour videos are some of my favorites of yours. Going through every piece of drum gear you have would prolly be a pain; but it'd be rad to check out
I’d love to see a tour of ALL your snares. If you’re like most drummers, you have more than people think you should, but less than you know you want.🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥
I may be the only one here, but i would love me a workshop tour. Definitely came here for the creativity, and stayed for the chops.
In Australia that kit was sold as a Pearl Maxwin.
Weirdly I think the room mics solo’d sounds the best...
I don't think I've ever heard room mics that sound that good
It's a good sound but the stereo image is wack. The kick especially is way on the right
@Connor Pearson go to my channel on September 25
@Connor Pearson also your right the room mics Drumeo uses probably sound twice as good as those
I also have that sand ride, it is my absolute favorite ride cymbal ever made. Perfect for literally any genre of music, from jazz to death metal.
I have one as well. Really great cymbal. Perfect cymbal for those who want a good washy crash but still have really good stick definition. So versatile
Just got my early 60's Slingerland in blue/white satin flame 20/13/16
just did the cotton ball trick by the way, it truly works
That ceiling mount thing is genius. It’s so stupidly simple I don’t know why I didn’t think of that. Definitely saving this video for future reference for that!!
your overhead/room mic setup is sick! inspiring and shows the attention to detail w/ your setup. Also, those dual hats sound killer.
This is the most solid drumming I've seen from you yet, nice!
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 03/07/2020 (07/03/20 - USA)

Loving the new studio bro
Dang, I got to it 12 minutes after it was posted! Looks absolutely awesome man!
Do a full tour.
dude that floor tom sounds beautiful
Can you do a studio tour in which you show us every kit you own at the moment. I‘m not that kind of tech gear head but I love to see others show their drums
The Saluda is really sweet! Loving that. The new set at the end looks like my old high school band room set. Ludwig with chrome over wood. Back in the day, they came with chrome dot heads. Wish they would come back with those. Looked great.
I like the sound of the kit 👍 especially the snare 🤘
Set up all your kits side by side (lined up) and do a review of each. The ULTIMATE sound demo to see them all together and hear each one individually
Thanks David for the video. Very nice to see what gear you use. I love your channel. No bs and down to earth. Cheers
I would like to see a workshop tour.
And we would love to see you back in action, Lance :)
Man dude. Your kit sounds killer.
Nice videos I love your channel man... keep up the awesome work
I really like the set up. It's a really old school set up, which makes it look fantastic✌️...
Those hats look and sound just like my 15” zildjian new beats. My dad bought them when I was a kid, and I inherited them. I find they mix a little better in the studio than live, but overall they’re great for pop and jazz sessions.
Thank you for finally making this, ive been hopping around videos from years ago and i’ve been wondering what kit you’ve settled on for now. Sounds great 🤟🏼
A whole drum/studio tour would be great. I know you have done that but a revamped one would really be great!
room mics sound phenomenal, keep up the dope vids
Amaaaazing! Definitely the rest of the Kit is aweeeeeesooome! I love that glitter thingy
The roadpro hardware is the frickin best man!!! I've had a tama roadpro snare stand for almost 20 years now, and it is still going strong!!! I use it for my 2 drum set snares and my marching snare. It is seriously the strongest snare stand on the market right now!!!

Saluda Cymbals. Good choice! The Diamond series is my favorite.
I'm addicted to those Freestyles!
That kit sounds really good
More vintage drum/MIJ videos love em
I enjoyed your tour idea. I would like all of the tours, please. Thank you.
I am a certified rug distributor and can say confidently, that that is a rug.
ah, thank you. I was on the fence about that.
Love it! I'm a big fan of how you have your overhead mics!
It all sounds pretty killer
Dude ive been a drumkubes artist for a while and they are great man. nice kit tour
A workshop tour to see what tools you use for your modifications would be good
Black Crows while demoing your crash? "She talks to angels "
Kit sounds great man
I do love all of your videos. Great diversion. My favorites are the rebuild episodes. 'specially Modifacations. (Star Cymbal)
That snare sounds dope af bro
Bruh. Yo room mics be sounding mighty good
Yo david, you should try to make a cymbal in to a flower shape, i think it would look pretty cool
Them playing zones👌
I think a big special would be could hour long tour of all the drum sets with some quick sound samples
I got a pair of freestyles with a 5B pack since they were on special , it’s been love ever since 🤘🏽❤️🤘🏽
The kit sounds amazing! I'm loving it 😁👍
Man that kick sounds sweet 👌
I love Saluda’s cymbals!!!
That crash sounds amazing...👌🏻🙂
You're comical and informative,good job dude!!! 🍻 ✌ 😎
We need a tour of all ur drums and cymbals!!! Also megakit?????? We need that megakit vid
that BD head is rad!
God damn that snare sounds butter! Though the snare wires sound a bit tight for my taste
the 19 saluda crash sounds real nice
Men you should do a video about how you tune your drums, all sound amazing!
0:42 - That's me!
Going by my own preferences, these toms have the exact right sustain length, as opposed to some of your other kits where they sound a bit too long for my taste. And the very first new drumhead I had ever bought (now 40 years ago!) was also a coated CS for my old Sonor snare :-) Other than that I only had a Sonor bass drum (also 20") with a Pearl pedal, some 'Morris' hi-hats for 50 bucks and a pair of bongoes as rack toms; Best Christmas ever! :-))
Hey david, out of all the shell packs you have, what makes you keep coming back to this unknown blue sparkle kit? Especially for it being the kit tour?
Also a tour of every shell pack in closet would be awesome!
That kit sounds good
Do a full gear tour of everything you have
Like the new merch!!!
The vic firth metal sticks are essentially the 2b version of a freestyle
Powertones poor man's dyna? Noooo. Very different beast all together and it does stuff the dyna just can't. Killer rock drum that's for sure.
Only favourite instrument I like is drum 🥁
Workshop tour!
We’ve been waiting 😤
Sorry, new here! It´s Maxwin by Pearl i think. My first drum was Maxwin too.
You should try Masterwork cymbals! They sound like Zildjian K but half the price. I recommend Masterwork Troy or Masterwork Customs
I've always been a Remo guy but a few years ago the guy at Guitar Center recommended the Evans EMAD 360 bass drum batter head. My kick has never sounded better.
And you *bought* the cymbal(s)?? I had believed you were being sponsored by Meinl! x-)) My very first crash cymbal was also a Meinl, a cheap 16" Streamer, followed by a 16" Raker. And yup, I believe you're right and your Zildjians are New Beat hi-hats, too; A friend of mine owns a pair and they sound very similar.

Made in taiwan...
Regards from brazil :D
Hey nice Chicago feature on the Saluda part
ALL THE TOURS
You have a very nice gears! :) Cool!
I think it would be sic if you do a drum gear tour by brand or by era!
I love your videos. I also find it supremely weird that you got your dream kit and don’t play it all the time. I just don’t know what to do with that.
other kits tour would be great. so would an all your cymbals tour
Just noticed that you drive a Honda Fit. Great car. How many drums have you been able to fit (pun intended) in it? Maybe even a video showing how many you can squeeze in. For all us drum buyers.
Great video! But I've been wondering why do you use this cheap drumset instead of your more expensive drumsets like the tama. (Sorry for the bad English I'm french😂)
Must see all drum sets!!
I'd say my favorite piece of gear is the remo black x snare batter head. it reminds me of avenged sevenfold's the Rev's snare sound, which has been my favorite ever since i got into drumming.
Yesss
David, do a video where you calculate the total price of every single piece of gear you have
That would be awesome
