  • This set tuned up very easy with the new edges, not sure its exactly "Bonham" tuning but think it's pretty close. I'm still trying to figure out this recording equipment hopefully you'll get a good idea of what it actually sounds like.
    As always thanks for watching!

    Dude, they sound phenomenal! And you play em' proper to get that sound out of them! I have absolutely loved every minute of this video series. I've always appreciated the support you've shown me, and I'm thrilled to extend such a hearty "THANK YOU!" for all your work in return! I have a few kits I've been slowly refurbishing as time permits, but this has been truly inspiring and has already initiated more momentum in the right direction for me than anything else! Keep making the myths, brother!

    Thanks for the shout, Shawn! I really enjoyed this video! Really stunning kit, you did a great job restoring it. You also get a great sound out of the kit, and that's not just tuning. It's the touch.

    Shawn, Those drums sound great. You have them tuned perfectly also. I have had that same drum set like your since 1974. I now have the same drums on in a 1970 Slingerland kit. same sizes and Paiste Giant Beat Cymbals from the late 60"s still. These drums sound fantastic.. Good job and you play well also...

    I started out on a 20/10/12/14 kit. Then bought a premier kit in near Bonham sizes (26/13/16/18)… Made me realise how beastly guys like Krupa and Bonham were, you really have to lay into big drums to get them to sing, and the bigger movements to get around the kit add up!
