Dennis — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 13:49:44 +0000

This custom Cocktail Kit recently left for a new home in the U.K., and was special ordered without the snare and with a larger tom. The drummer is planning to use an existing 14″ snare with this kit, hence the larger 12″ tom to compliment the overall larger sound. The main drum is our standard 16″x24″, with the same mounting hardware found on our Deluxe Cocktail Kits. The finish is a stunning Tangerine Glass Glitter, and looks extra classy with the Radio King style lugs, check it out:

Burnt Sienna Satin Lacquer Burst, with color matched wood hoops!

Dennis — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 15:03:11 +0000

This unique build features our popular Burnt Sienna Satin Lacquer with a dark airbrushed burst that carries onto the great sounding Yamaha-Style maple hoops. Both the visual and acoustic effects of this kit are over the top! The main drum is 18″x24″ and provides a deeper thump than our standard 16″x24″ cocktail drums. The snare is a beefy 13″x7″, and the rack tom is a traditional 12″x8″. The Yamaha-style hoops provide a nice deep tone to the drums and great cross-stick action on the snare. A vintage style DW Rail Mount was used to mount the 12″ tom, and provides a large range of movement that allows the tom to be placed in a more traditional trap-kit style setup. A Dunnett R-Class strainer, internal Shure Beta 52A and a full set of Protection Racket cases completed this setup for a “ready-to-rock’n'roll-in-only-one-trip-to-the-car” dream kit!
