I haven't gotten into the collectible drum key thing yet, though I'm often tempted to grab one from Cherry hill - they look quite nice.
As for favorites, I have 2:
1) My Craviotto key, given to me by Johnny when I visited the factory to pick up a snare I bought (I live close to the original CA...
I have a pair of TS hats in this weight range, brilliant to boot. They make really fun hi hats, I wouldn't dismiss these if you're interested. That's an old school cymbalholic seller too.
Beautiful, thanks for sharing. I only have 1 Rogers kit, a 13/16/20 Silver Glitter, but I love it. I just took it out tonight and just get such a kick out of playing it. One day I'd like to own a 12/14/20 BDP but am not in a rush. It'll show up (or not) when the time is right.
GLWS/T!
Check Jollity, looks like they have a Silver 26"

I guarantee you the best way to get the red you're after is to settle for a different color and buy it. Within a month or so what you are actually looking for will show up...
Thanks. I'm a lefty, I picked up an original lefty Rogers kit here many years ago. Its one of my favorite kits to play, 13/16/20 silver glitter. I've been casually browsing for a 12/14/20 Rogers in BDP though as that's my favorite vintage wrap and was just thinking last night, what are the...
If I was in the market for a Lauritsen 20 I'd grab @curly in a heartbeat. Great guy to do business with as well:

Let me put it another way - please buy his 20 so I dont have too!
So. Many. Nice. Cymbals. For. Sale.
Its too much, I cant handle it. These are actually pretty rare weights in my experience, not paper thin and mushy, but well below modern new beat terrain. I'd love to but I can't, so just chiming in to kick a tire or 2 and say GLWS!
Kinda blows your whole cover band thesis, eh? I actually got a pair of tickets I need to sell for their Berkeley, CA show later in August. Come on out VB with the misses, I'll give you a good deal!
One thing I've noticed with my 60s Roger's 20 is its much more conducive to wide open heads/tuning than most other drums I own. I love that tone, but its not as useful for me generally in most real world band situations. I have a virgin Craviotto 20 that just sings forever with coated...
Agreed here, the price increase is an indirect way out, but could backfire. It will be harder but feel so much better to just let her go. You dont need an excuse.
Fascinating story, sorry to both parties for the trouble. Not defending Amazon, but you do get what you pay for these days. Shop at a specialty store, the price you pay is the cost of goods + some premium for service. Amazon, not so much... It really shouldn't be a surprise to all of us though...
Beautiful Tom, one of these days we need to have a bay area hang, and I want to check out that swish when its done!
No stories of my own to share yet but I'm 6 months into the one year waiting list for Craig (Lauritsen). I plan on having him make me a full set since he seems to do such a...
Cymbals say 14" right on them, get out your glasses pops!
(In full disclosure I couldn't read it either and only took the time to zoom because it bugged me how blind I am)
