NOT my "cup of tea" regarding the set, the drum sizes, but still, this drummer's idea for the composition is GREAT!!!

Otherwise, You get what You get... :)
You buy a cheap small portable set, and then change ALL the heads on it, and You get a decent sound...

Just like I did on my Gretsch Catalina bop kit.
Changed top and bottom heads, and both bass drum heads.
And it sounded nice, but not WOW nice...

Very tasteful, indeed!

I love the pitch bending on the kick drum.

Very nice cymbals, as well.

Yowee tasty! Had to put on headphones and go back. Cliff, you're spot on with the tonal bass. I try that on occasion, but never get that much shift. Must come from a tight and undamped batter.

The overall control and musicality knocks my socks off. Loved the lighting strategically placed to illuminate the beater.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Not sure it is the kick drum sound I want, but I think it is where you need to be to still get a note that resonates with the beater buried in the head. Works for him, though. ;)

His high tuning reminds me of Sully.

I am thinking what an asset it would be in a group with no bass player. Now... why would I think of a thing like that? Trouble is it makes one more detail to be in control of. Great if you can do it!

Probably helps that it is a 16, and that the beater (at least appears) to be hitting way out toward the edges.

I think it's a 14, Greg.
