Wow - they certainly look gorgeous Hale... :shock:

Will this be a gigging kit, or a show-practice set (dis)played in the "drum room"?!?

Goki, the drums will most likely stay in the drum room for now, but only because we don't really gig at the moment, and I have that baby girl. So far I'm having a bit of trouble dialing in the floor toms, but the racks sound incredible, thick, wet, resonant...kinda like an old girlfriend...wait what!?

Take your time Hale. I know you are no slouch and don't need to hear from me, but when the kit is right it's "really frigging right".
Just a note, they will tune higher. Higher than I thought they would go and higher than I am used to kits going.
Also, for the last couple years I have been mixing heads up on my kit. Meaning, different heads on the floor toms.
I would get the racks how I love them and found the bigger drums weren't optimum with the same heads. It's a new thing for me. But realized I was anal with "things had to match", even if I had to make it work.

Just a limited run drum...I'm still trying to dial in these Signias but so far so good. I must say the hardware plating is nice. I'm a bit underwhelmed by the l shaped tom arms and the bass drum holder. Even when I had a Granstar Custom back in the day, I thought for my needs I like straight mounting arms, like Sonor, Yama, Pearl.

Yes! We are gettting closer and closer to them coming to my house :D

Have to agree Hale regarding the bass mount, and the claws are goofy. Stuff I can live with though.
I like the arms, especially the memory lock setup.
The chrome is incredible.
