Starglow Acrylic kit for The Next

by Dennis
December 15th, 2011

Nothing glows quite like our Starglow white acrylic. This kit is going to get some serious use in the clubs of the north east with The Next – a hot new group featuring the talented Anthony Baker on drums.  Stay tuned for some future video of it lighted and spinning on Bakers rotating drum riser.  In the meantime scroll down to check out the 10″x8″, 12″x9″, 14″x12″, 16″x14″, and 22″x16″.  Not pictured is a matching 14″x6.5″ snare.  It’s one seriously sharp setup and is going to integrate into their live light show with style.  Check it out:

StarGlow Acrylic Custom Phattie Set

by Dennis
November 14th, 2011

A beautiful example of StarGlow acrylic, this one comes with a video sample so you can check how smooth and even the glow of our low profile LED systems are.  The drums are standard Phattie Acrylic specs: dual 45 degree bearing edges with a smooth contact patch, solid brass tube lugs, Gauger Alloy RIMS mounts, Evans heads, etc.  The sizes include 10″x10″, 12″x11″, and 13″x12″ hanging toms, 22″x18″ bass and 14″x7″ snare drum.  This custom LED install includes double-density LED’s and a custom controller that offers independent control of individual channels.  The final result is a smooth looking kit, with or without the lights on.  Check it out:

Phattie Hybrid Kit, Black Glass over Starglow Acrylic

by Dennis
September 29th, 2011

Today’s kit is a sharp looking set of Phattie Hybrids.  StarGlow acrylic centers combined with our LED lighting provide for an awesome effect against the black glass glitter and black hardware.  The sizes on this custom setup include 8″x8″, 10″x8″, and 12″x8″ rack toms, 14″x14″ and 18″x16″ floor toms and a thumping 22″x20″ bass drum.  Pearl Optimounts were used on the rack toms, and custom machined to fit Yamaha tom brackets that were powder coated black to match.   Other custom touches include a full DMX controller with built-in light board, black Gauger Alloy RIMS cradles, a deep-dish front bass hoop, and Phattie Custom Shop badges placed discreetly so they don’t interfere with the light show.  Smooth kit that looks killer when the lights go down, check it out:

Phattie 13″x8″ Hybrid with some classy inlays

by Dennis
April 18th, 2011

Hybrid Maple/Acrylic/Maple drums are a relatively new development in the drum world.  Wooden inlays are timeless and have been used by luthiers for many, many years.  This deep 13″x8″ Phattie snare combines the best of both worlds for a sharp modern look with a classic wood working touch.  The maple sections are 10-Ply Maple with 1/2″ wide ebony, cherry and maple inlays.  The center section is 1/4″ clear acrylic, check it out:
