This week we had the opportunity to supply some cool prototypes to Chris Thompson of the Eli Young Band.  He’s got some cool new snares to try out on the road…but more on those next week!  Today’s Friday Flashback is the first kit we built for the Eli Young Band sometime in early 2006.  This kit featured a 12″ rack tom, 14″ and 16″ hanging floor toms, and a deep 22″ bass.  The finish is a red glass glitter with silver sparkle stars, and custom silver metallic/sparkle powder coating that shimmered under the lights.  This was the first of many cool kits we’ve built for them so far, check it out:
