If the 28″ isn’t eye-catching enough, add an HCL and light it up!

This work of art features our new internal lighting system that is the thinnest, lightest, and brightest available.  These new LED based lights are laminated inside the shell and are paper thin, with the actual LED’s standing less than 1/8″ tall, for a smooth unobtrusive look.  Miles ahead of the center-mounted light bulbs and other options drummers turn to.

Highlighting this custom Phattie Acrylic kit is a 28″x20″ HCL bass drum, with the smaller bass in Pink Fluorescent acrylic.  The rack tom is a 12″x8″, and the floor toms are 14″x10″ and 16″x12″, both on DSS suspension cradles.  Solid brass tube lugs, chrome bass hoops, and clean custom wiring and power jacks make this kit a playable work of art.

Vintage style “Big Band” kit, with the HCL bass system installed…

We first began producing the HCL bass system in early 2008 with great results and positive reviews from drummers near and far.  The HCL system is based on the Haskell theory of sound waves, providing a drum that acts as both a small bass drum and a large woofer, and is tuned for optimal low-end response.  The 20″ Batter head on the 28″ bass is positioned to provide the same pedal feel and response as a 22″ bass drum.  To learn more about the system visit the Innovations page at PhattieDrums.com by clicking here.

This kit was created to capture the feel of a Big Band kit from the era when Radio Kings and Rolling Bombers were the drums of choice.  The toms are 12″x8″, 14″x14″, and 16″x16″, each with inlayed wood hoops.  The bass is a 28″ HCL system, and the snare 14″x7″ with single-flanged hoops.  Pre-Aged White Pearl and Radio King lugs round out the package for an exceptionally classy setup.
