    just the drums...probably the best/most expensive christmas present ive ever gotten.



    now i just need to buy some decent (aka not zildjian ZBT) hi-hats and i'll be very satisfied with my drum set.



    thanks dad!

    that exact kit, just no cymbals/stands.



    previously i was rocking a tama swingstar that i spray-painted hot pink..



    still using my 70's ludwig metal snare though



    the toms on the Gretsch kit sound amazing!

    uuuhhh. thats really a hell of a christmas present. i'd like to have a new drumkit too, my sonor kit is gettin old and moving it from gig to gig isnt really improving the sound.

    It's been a while since I played on Gretsch drums, but I remember that they were banging!

    Are you recording a lot of drums? Or do you stick to the samples?

    I got nothing.















































    Other than a bag of weed. What else could I want?



    I like to give better anyway, but my girl and I don't really celebrate Christmas. We celebrate New Years, that's when we exchange presents.
