Members johnrobbsmusic Posted January 21, 2010 Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hey guys, lots of you saw my status on facebook and wanted pics, well, here's one, I'll get some more once I get all the mounting hardware, but this is the drumset I stripped and stained, let me know what you guys think!! Cheers yes, I intended them to look like that...kind of...I screwed up the first one and liked it, so I did all of them like that, they look awesome in dimly lit rooms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members johnrobbsmusic Posted January 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 Interesting approach. Are these the old shells I gave you? Heck man...I don't remember, i had two black kits, one you gave me and one that I bought off craigslist, I can't remember which is which, one had a dampener though I remember, these are the one that didn't have the dampeners and thanks guys! I just need an arm to mount the 12", I'll probably put the 13" on a snare stand next to the floor tom, then I just need the claws and rods for the BD and I'm good to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members piersonm Posted January 21, 2010 Members Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm the odd man out. Looks like water damage to me...but if you like them thats all that matters. Re-did my drums to look like granite and could care less what people think. Congrats on making it 'your kit'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members johnrobbsmusic Posted January 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 22, 2010 Nice work. What is the wood? who knows It looked like maple to me, but the 13" was differnt, it had a completely different grain and texture to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jarick Posted January 22, 2010 Members Share Posted January 22, 2010 It could look really, really awful, but if you put down a ton of coats of clear over it and get it to a deep gloss, it would look nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members johnrobbsmusic Posted January 23, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2010 ^haha, thanks beaker, that's about how it was w/me, but it started w/ "ummm", and ended on "cool", thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
