  • 8x10 Vintage tom
  • 8x12 Vintage tom
  • 14x14 Vintage floor tom
  • 14x20 Vintage bass
  • 5x14 Hammered Brass snare
Aside from standard drumset use, I also use the drums from this kit in multiple percussion set ups. The snare drum is exceptionally profound for solos involving extended techniques. -VH
