Hi Vic. Thank you for the observations. That's where my head is going these days. I just saw an Egnater Tweaker amp on the web - 15 watts, reasonable size, with many options for tailoring the tone. Of course, not sure what it's like clean but I hope to get to a city where one is on display soon. Ano...

Cocktail drum and guitar jazz
I recently started playing (what I hope will be) jazz style guitar. Question: if anyone here plays jazz on a cocktail set with an electric guitarist, how many watts does his amp have? I'm looking to buy a new amp but I'm unsure whether to get a large amp (50-100+ watts) or whether a small amp (5-10 ...

That's really great to see you in action with the kits you have created Peter. And I would think soundwise they fit very well too - proof that a person who knows how to play well is the most important thing about good sounding drums. The sound clips you have posted on the Lau Brothers page prove tha...

One suggestion of a place to look for hardware would be www.drummaker.com. When I built my drum I found literally everything I needed there (except a bass drum pedal). Not sure I can visualize the mount you are describing but give 'em a try - there isn't much they don't have. Good luck.

Have you considered using your computer as a recorder? You can get a good sounding audio interface for about $35 (Behringer AU-101 USB interface) or a professional audo card for around $100. A small mixer or mic preamp, an inexpensive condenser mic and recording software (16 track recorders, Kristal...

I bought a six ply maple Keller shell and marked it for eight lugs. It was cheaper than a Club Jordan by a long shot and wasn't too difficult once I remembered my high school geometry. I think www.drummaker.com (that's where i got it) will lay it out and mark the places to drill for like $30 or $40 ...
