With a variety of unique sizes and features, this Phattie Custom Shop kit is a real head turner.  The 10″x10″ rack tom, 14″x12″ hanging floor tom, 16″x12″ gong drum, and 26″x10″ bass drum all feature a deep walnut-to-black satin lacquer burst.  Natural maple laser-engraved badges compliment the finish, as does the satin black powder coating on all the hardware.  Gauger Alloy RIMS mounts are standard equipment on Phatties, while the genuine Pearl spurs, 12-lug bass drum, and custom painted Yamaha style wood hoops were customer spec’ed to make this kit something special.  Check it out:

Another drum that doubles as a beautiful work of art has rolled out of the shop!  This 14″x7″  snare drum sounds every bit as good as it looks, featuring a 1-ply maple shell with 1-ply reinforcement rings that support a wide bearing edge with a full round over.  1-Ply steam bent hoops are the perfect upgrade and give the drum a nice fat sound and a timeless look.  Custom touches include 1/4″ Paua Abalone inlays in the center of the shell and both wood hoops, brushed-satin finished hardware and matching stainless steel fasteners all around.  A Dunnett R4 strainer with quick-release, Evans heads, and Puresound wires complete this package.  Check it out:

Nesting Cocktail Kit with some Custom Shop touches

by Dennis
September 12th, 2011

Today’s Nesting Cocktail Kit features some touches from the Custom Shop that turn it into a real head turner.  Sizes include the standard 10″x6″ snare, 10″x8″ rack tom, and 16″x24″ cocktail drum.  Custom touches include a beautiful Burnt Sienna satin lacquer with a light fade that continues onto the yamaha-style wood hoops.  The nearly seamless nesting feature blends right into the finish, and tube lugs replace the usual Radio King style lugs for a modern vibe.  Check out the last photo for the contour cut spacers used on the floor tom leg brackets, airbrushed to match the fade on the shell.  It’s all about the details, and this setup pulls them together into a beautiful package that fits into one bag.
