Members rfdias Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 Au natural...the only way to go. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members turdadactyl Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 I voted natural for the same reason as cdawg. You can get some awesome exotics like bubinga and a bunch of others. But you also have to give props for a nice tobacco fade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cearleywine Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 I really dig stained green, IMO the best canvas for gold hardware or wood rims. 2nd place would be the walnut or darker stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eyehearya Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 I went with the walnut because I love darker stains but +1 on the no black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cdawg Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 has anyone ever seen a transparent cream or white? just curious. not that i'd want it, i've just seen that on guitars, but i can't remember seeing it on drums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cearleywine Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 oh, forgot my negative response. Not a fan of shells that fade straight from one color to another. Although, I dig the highlighted center look. As long as it isn't too exaggerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jarick Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 Trans red, or any warmer toned stain (reddish brown, darker orange, amber, etc). I like a subtle burst... I dislike yellow, green, and stains/colors that are so bright they conceal the grain. Also dislike an abrupt burst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marko46 Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 This one's tougher for me. I picked the green, but the Gennie's are more of an Emerald. But, I really dig natural, and I've seen some beautiful kits stained in shades of burgandy, umber too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members zildjian@consol Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 For me it really depends on how dark or light the wood is and how figered it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lossforgain Posted November 14, 2009 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2009 I'm a sucker for natural maple, although woods with a cool grain are cool too. If Ludwig EVER comes out with a natural maple option on the Legacy drums...mmmmmmmmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soundcreation Posted November 15, 2009 Members Share Posted November 15, 2009 Natural or Darker stain..like walnut or cherry..whatever..classic and timeless. NO FADES....sorry I know they are the cats ass trend right now..but I just don't like them. (with a couple rare exceptions) On guitars..perfect..on drums...not for me.

Members TwistedZ Posted November 15, 2009 Members Share Posted November 15, 2009 Natural maple for me. I don't care for any of the fades or solid color lacquer's that cover up the woodgrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
