Phattie Nesting Kit, 10″, 14″, 18″, with matching snare!

by Dennis
December 5th, 2011

There’s nothing quite like being able to cart your drumset from gig to gig in just one bag.  This kit is another great example of the quality and sound possible with our nesting drum sets.  Featuring a 10″x8″ rack tom, 14″x11″ floor tom, 18″x21″ bass drum and a matching 14″x5″ snare, this whole setup fits into one nice travel case.  The seams are expertly cut and feature a reinforcement ring that adds structural rigidity and keeps the sections of the drum in-round to each other.  The result is a big sound from a little package.  Custom features on this kit include the Modern Mahogany satin lacquer, Tear-Drop style lugs, DW Rail mount, and the adjustable latches on the nesting drums.  Check it out:

Nested kits travel with each drum in a Protection Racket soft case.  Photo below shows them without cases, just to illustrate how it works.  I don’t recommend carting them around town like this, would be a little rough on the beautiful finish:Nesting Drum Set - Phattie

A little something to brighten up your weekend

by Dennis
December 18th, 2010

Here’s something worth making a weekend post about: A 7-piece Clear Acrylic Phattie kit with full DMX controls.  This kit features 10″x8″ and 12″x8″ rack toms, 14″x14″, 15″x14″ and 16″x14″ floor toms, a 20″x18″ bass and a 13″x7″ snare (not pictured).   Built using RCI clear acrylic shells and brushed-satin hardware, this kit delivers in both sounds and looks.  The ultra low-profile LED install was designed, wired, and installed in-house for maximum brightness while keeping an almost invisible presence when not in-use.  Once the kit is setup with stands and cymbals, you’ve got no idea what’s coming until it powers up!  Check out the video for a full sampling of the different flashing/fading/chasing/crazy colors that are possible:

Phattie Hybrid with an LED twist

by Dennis
September 27th, 2010

It’s early Monday morning, and if you’re a drum fanatic that needs a cup of coffee to get moving, the video below just might work for you!

This kit is a Phattie Hybrid Series that features 10″x8″ and 12″x9″ rack toms, 14″x12″ and 16″x14″ floor toms, a thumping 22″x20″ bass, and a matching 14″x8″ snare.  The finish is Broken Glass Glitter with lightly frosted clear acrylic inserts and classic tear-drop style lugs holding it all together.  The lighting system was created in-house, and features multiple channels of control allowing different drums to be different colors, and greatly expands the light-show possibilities and programming options of the kit.  Check out the video to get a taste of the possibilities, then visit our Youtube and Facebook pages to see many more photos and videos of this kit in action.  Dig it:

Friday Flashback! Deep Blue Satin Burst over maple…

by Dennis
June 18th, 2010

This Friday Flashback kit goes way back to late 2003, and is a set of Phattie Classic Series that featured a smooth deep blue-to-black burst.  The sizes were 8″x7″, 10″x8″, 12″x9″, and 14″x14″, with a beefy 24″x18″ bass.  All with chrome tear-drop lugs and Pearl BT3 style suspension mounts.  Great looking kit…if it happens to be your kit now, send in some action photos!

Friday Flashback, a funky Orange Satin Lacquer set of Phatties…

by Dennis
June 4th, 2010

This Friday Flashback dates from early 2003…geeze time flies!  This kit included 8″, 10″, 12″, 14″, and 16″ hanging toms and a 22″ bass, all finished in a bright orange satin lacquer with black hardware.  This was also one of the first kits that rocked our new Phattie logo in the bubble-badge that we used until switching to the chrome-plated badges.  The matching orange Phattie logo on the bass was a nice touch, check it out:
