Funky Phattie Hybrid for Friday

by Dennis
March 18th, 2011

Sometimes a color combo comes out even sweeter than I’d hoped!  This hybrid mashes a purple acrylic center with red sparkle and looks killer.  Specs: 14″x6″, 10-ply maple sections with a 1/4″ thick acrylic center, solid brass tube lugs, Trick GS007 strainer, puresound wires, all the standard goodies.  Good way to start off the Friday:

Phattie Hybrids with Quick Action Drum Lugs

by Dennis
November 4th, 2010

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:

In case you missed it, check out this beautiful Red Glass Glitter & Clear Hybrid Kit, then check out these cool accessories crafted to match.  The stick holder is 6″ in diameter and is fully wrapped, even on the bottom, to match the kit.  The laptop tray features 1/4″ heavy duty acrylic with a recessed tom bracket for mounting, and a glass glitter wrapped edge tapped and bolted into the acrylic to keep things from sliding around.  Adding these accessories is another cool example of “if you can think it up, we can make it look good”.  Dig it:

September 27th, 2010

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 kit features a unique blend of options, for a broad range of setups.  The rack toms are 10″x7.5″, 12″x8″, and 14″x10″.  The floor tom is a 16″x16″, and is paired with a matching 18″x18″ cocktail drum.  Rounding out the setup is a 20″x18″ bass, a 10″x3.5″ timbale, and a 13″x3.5″ cocktail snare.  The setup possibilities are endless!  The matching 18″ cocktail drum can double as a 2nd floor tom, or can be used as a single floor tom with the 14″ rack for a big rock setup.  The 10″ and 12″ rack toms can be mounted on the 18″ cocktail drum, along with the 13″ snare, for all types of smaller gigs.  A 10/14/20 setup for jazz night? No problem!  A snare/timbale/cocktail drum for the piano bar? Got it!  A 10/12/14/16/18/20 for rocking out?  Done!  Check it out:
