Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Thanks. The weight isn't that bad it's about the same as an LP.

The SX bases came from https://www.rondomusic.com/ and were a little over $100 each. They are very well made and the only complaint that I would have with them is that they have laminated fretboards and I prefer raw wood. The site also sells Agile guitars which are a good deal (however they used to have a better body design and were cheaper).

For a good deal on a guitar check out https://store.guitarfetish.com/ . The Xaviere guitar are sweet and they use the website's GFS pickups. I have the GFS pups in my Strat, BC Rich and LP copy and couldn't be happier with them

I dig. What brand, wood, sizes, and plys is your kit? It appears you and I have the same ride cymbal. That thing can sure take a beating.

Its a PDP 805 Series.

Sizes: 14,16, (there is also an 18 inch floor tom. I just wasent using it at the time) and the bass drum is a massive 24X18.

And yes! the Sabian HH Duo ride is bad***. I use it more as my main crash, and it had great projection, controled overtones, and deep fat sustain.

That's a PDP?! Woah, I haven't been keeping up on drum equipment lately. It's been all bicycles and electronic music for me lately. Man, those kits look slammin! I still got my PDP kit from when I was about 15 years old.

As a matter of fact yes it is. 14"x14" 197? Ludwig marching snare with a cut Pearl Eliminator snare stand to lower the snare enough to actually play.

I agree, this is a great thread. And now I want one of those thumb pianos! And a drum kit. Not that I'm any good, but I can keep a beat.
