Mike Rhodes took a little time from a current session down at Echo Mountain to demo the house Phattie kit. This sample was recorded on a Zoom Q3 with no additional mics or editing, just the raw sound off the camera. Sizes used are a 12″x10″ rack, 16″x14″ floor, 24″x18″ bass, and a 14″x7″ snare. For more info & pics of the kit just click here. The toms and snare are fitted with Remo Coated Ambassadors, bass has a Superkick II/Fiberskyn combo. Check it out:

This fresh set of Phattie Hybrids features the new Quick Action Drum Lug all around, with custom RIMS mounting and bass hoop lugs. The Quick Action Drum Lugs are a quick-release style lug that works different than other quick release lugs on the market. Once all the tension rods on a head have been loosened, you just turn the hoop to the side and they all slide right out of the lug. This system is also designed to not interfere with the RIMS mounts. Heads can be removed and swapped while the drum stays on the stand, no problem! The lug inserts stay on the tension rod when the hoops are removed, preventing the tension rods from sliding off the hoops, getting lost, etc. This function is the same on the bass drum hoops, when the hoop comes off the tension rods can’t slip out of the hoop lugs, they stay attached, making head swaps a piece of cake. For more info on these lugs check out QuickActionDrumLug.com
Kit specs: 10″, 12″, 14″, and 16″ hanging rack toms with Gauger Alloy RIMS mounts, and a thumping 22″x20″ bass with heavy duty spurs. Navy Blue acrylic center sections, Blue Glass Glitter maple sections, and Evans heads all-around, check it out:

It’s early Monday morning, and if you’re a drum fanatic that needs a cup of coffee to get moving, the video below just might work for you!
This kit is a Phattie Hybrid Series that features 10″x8″ and 12″x9″ rack toms, 14″x12″ and 16″x14″ floor toms, a thumping 22″x20″ bass, and a matching 14″x8″ snare. The finish is Broken Glass Glitter with lightly frosted clear acrylic inserts and classic tear-drop style lugs holding it all together. The lighting system was created in-house, and features multiple channels of control allowing different drums to be different colors, and greatly expands the light-show possibilities and programming options of the kit. Check out the video to get a taste of the possibilities, then visit our Youtube and Facebook pages to see many more photos and videos of this kit in action. Dig it:

This beauty is the new house kit at Echo Mountain Studios here in Asheville, NC. The sizes are 10″x8″, 12″x9″, 14″x12″, 16″x14″, and 24″x16″. The finish is a water based lacquer over a custom deep red mahogany stain with flecked maple inlays, and the contrast is beautiful. Inlayed wooden hoops combine with the Phattie bearing edge for a pre-eq’ed sound, a perfect blend of punch, sustain, and minor overtones for recording. Custom Echo/Phattie laser engraved badges round out the look, for a smooth modern appearance with a vintage vibe. I could go on and on about this kit, but I’ll cut short the wordy description and let the photos do the talking:

The contrast between the purple satin lacquer, the chrome, and the clear acrylic turned out even nicer than I anticipated. The sizes include a 12″x8″ rack tom, 14″x12″ and 16″x14″ floor toms, and a thumping 22″x20″ bass. Check it out:
