[MrJoechester1236]

[SuperBrandon567]

[iliek2dub]

excellent sound quality.

[clester96]

not meaning to hate or anything but have you tried not using a double bass pedal cause your good but your grooves were never on a hi hat cause your feet were always on a bass pedal

[BeAtThRaShEr95]

Is there anything in your bass drum and what bass drum batter head do you use?

[nhdrummer2112]

Have you considered doing the Guitar Center drum off? You do all the things they look for, entertaining good chops solid grooves. I think you could pull it off!

[2garsdrole]

Your awesome feet really compliment your awesome overall drum skill. It's so fuckin' GREAT to listen and watch you play! You are the kind of person that makes me want to keep playing.

[AshDrums7]

CAD. They are premium.

[Bopkins14]

Premium but i'm pro at recording so it dont matter! lol

just kidding man.... thanks for the comment.

Peace!

[AshDrums7]

Yeah, that bass drum sound is really nice. In general, how do you get a click sound on your bass drum?

[chaldoantwan18]

its called a danmar metal kick pad

[Mistapsychoo]

It depends what Bass Drum you have. Mines a 20" by 22". The head that your bass pedal beaters hit I losen off, so that the tension isn't very high, but still has some tension at least, and the front head that isn't hit, I losen it off a lot, so there is hardly any tension at all, but I have to clamp the lugs so they dont unwind all the way and fall off. My bass drum has a lot of cavity space in it, so all I do it put a towel next to the heads to dampen it a bit. Smaller basses may require more.

[ringlord55]

loving the double bass!

[iixlateralusxii]

I don't know what the term is for drummers, but your foot-tapping speed is amazing

[skinnyhurley]

im gonna put a tune to this with my guitar if that's ok and send you the vid!

[Bopkins14]

sweeeeeet!

[manunitedchampions07]

What Are Cad Mics? Well Your Kit Sounds Rad.

[XxPatrickPradaxX]

hey. great drumming (:

What Cad mics do you use??

[jethrow007]

yo man, try to learn-- tom sawyer by rush-- neil peart is the best drummer in the world, but u porbly allready knew that

[Sabiano]

thats all a matter of opinion...not a part of general knowledge, u idiot! i.e. the best drummer in the world imho is Todd Sucherman!!

[iixlateralusxii]

Danny Carey...

[ringlord55]

Jordan Mancino

[alexbyardcookedrums]

this video is absoloutly amazing man u are awesome! will you check my video and giv me a bit of advice on drumming and recording thanks :)

[rchann]

Your versatility will get you far. If you're going to LA Musicians instute, look for drum instructor, Chuck Silverman . Good luck and keep tearing it up.

[17drums]
