hi, what drumheads are you using in this vid?

[drex48239]

have you ever tried kick ports

[danbriechle]

@drex48239 nope, that would defeat the purpose of this set. When I play a double headed kit I prefer no porting of the head I think it really kills the sound. but to each is their own.

[fleetwoodbrawm]

awesome kit, i built the same thing years ago before all the rage, didnt come out nearly as nice as yours but sounded decent, great job and playin too!

[danbriechle]

@fleetwoodbrawm

Thanks, I've been building sets for about 10 years now. My main focus is on the supper portable stuff. I've been gigging for about 15 years and having a huge set losses its novelty after awhile. Its nice to build a set that has the same sound as a larger one. I know its not the same as a 24x 18 bass drum but hey the whole thing fits int he cab of my truck in one case hw included

[samnaps1]

love that snare!

[howycwap]

it would be nice if the bass was tuned a little better....but thats my liking probobly not yours...seeing how you tuned it

[danbriechle]

@howycwap yeah that makes sense since you like bass drums that are tuned better and I like bass drums that are tuned badder lol :)

[TheLapbander]

I think for a mini kit this guy built himself it sounds awesome

[TheRealRayJ]

First of all: kudos to you for building your own kit. Definitely makes you appreciate your art when you craft your instrument yourself. Snare sounds sick. Personally, I think you should wood hoop the toms as well. I really do think those toms need bottom heads. Hard to hear over YouTube if I just disagree with your tuning or you just need bottom heads. As for your kick: Make it wayyyy smaller. I'm talking 12" height. It'll match the tightness of your snare. Check out Steve Jordan's small kick.

[danbriechle]

@TheRealRayJ it is a 12" height

pretty sick tone, that is some coool stuff!

[MarkusGronroos]

nice sound!

[TheTrueHappy]

I thought the kick drum sounded weird at first, but it grew on me, now I kind of really like it haha.

[mfretton]

Which Hipgig kit is this? I can only find the Rick Marotta & Manu Katche sets & yours looks simpler and nicer! The maple finish is also great.

[danbriechle]

Glad You like it!

Its a set I built myself actually. Its 8 ply shells 18x 12 14x7 and 10x5. If your interested I could build one for you too for about the cost of the manu kit. I recently went into business building custom sets search danbriechle in ebay if you want to see a beautiful kit in tamo ash I have up now

Drop me a line at danbriechle@hotmail.com

Thanks

This KIT perfectly demonstrates why you need to have Bottom heads!!!

This config gives you mainly the Top head sound with out the thickness and depth of a dual headed drum! I dig the look of the kit but the snare sounds like a Cowbell...hahaha ....but nice playin anyway!

[danbriechle]

@candidcomment

To each is his own. Some people like bass drums that are 24 x 26 some people like snare drums that are 150 ply some people like vintage kits some people like acrylic shells some people like buckets and trash cans some people like to only carry one drum case to the show instead of ten

the point is what ever makes you happy wont always make some else happy

[sgtpepper1138]

@candidcomment drums don't NEED to have resonant heads to sound good, listen to a lot of the recordings to come out of Hollywood that Hal Blaine played on. he had a MONSTER kit that had custom made spun fiberglass concert toms, and they sound great on those recordings.

[dinglenutzz]

love the snare...the bass drum...i got all thugged out.....LOL rollin up in my Benz.....szup ladies ^^

[stagecustomfan]

that snare would be perfect for drum and bass

[grajdrums]

Awesome man.

[chunkyostrich]

LOVE the snare!!!! What is it?? For my personal taste I could stand to here the kick and toms tuned up a bit. :) Maybe even a resonant head on your kick too! Sound great man!

[pektus5]

I have MAXTONE TRAVELLER kit,very similar like PEARL TRAVELLER KIT.10x4,14x4 and 20x8.They are single headed.I had problem with sound.They sounds BLAUM,BLAUM. I need 5 years to find heads,and they sounds good now.On toms-POWERSTROKE REMO clear,on BASS-PINSTRIPE COATED with REMO MUFL.All drums are medium tune.

[SolidLovin]

Good playing, but it sounds like you're trying not to wake the neighbours.

[cedybearnaar]

Hey man. I want to get some wood hoops for my toms and possibly bass and snare. Do you know any good sites/shops or anything? (Shops in the UK. Not bothered about the sites)

[themindfuck]

COOL i want it! slingerland huhh,.. very nice... i'd like to hear he bass muffled, EQ'ed and mic'd!

[danbriechle]

the drum would sound terrible muffled, single head kits project, best way to mike em is room / over heads

[krusher1974]

sounds sweet!!

[drummer1127]

Damn! What kind of bass head is that? What wood is the kit????

[anonymus002]

looks like a evans emad bass head

[danbriechle]

Its a modified fiberskyn 3 and the shells are maple 10x5 14x7 18x12 and 10x5snare inside and outside ply of mahogany

[danbriechle]

8 ply maple, modified fiberskyn 3

[drummer1127]

How did you modify it... THANKS.

[paulysci925]
