nah dude, i have more time on my hands than you could imagine. im just lazy that's why i couldnt do more than i really want to do.

bakit 16 lang? why not go 18, it feels like a real bass drum and will sound better. space wouldnt be a problem since its not much bigger than a 16. just buy the parts and bring them to me. one day lang naman yan

question would it be ok soundwise to add 8", 10", and 14" acrylic toms (those tulad kay sir peeves) sa fernando set?

@ sir peeves mgkano naman kaya kung magpapatulong sau (cut bearing edges and drill lug holes and gromet holes) mgkano kaya hoops for those toms sa lazer and lugs and yung mounts...

mga dudes sorry wala ako masasagot sa presyo ng parts. iba iba parts na gusto natin, iba ibang sizes din at iba ibang configuration. hehehe kahit nga lazer iba iba prices e, try mo bumili sa market market at sa festival mall, magkaiba prices nila. kayo na magestimate:

1 bass spur 475 delete from
1 short tension rod 10 to 15 pesos
1 long tension rod 22 c
10x7 acrylic shell 1500 (tulad nung akin)
14x5.5 acrylic shell 800 (tulad nung kay gep)
10" hoop for 6 lugs 120 pesos each
small lug tulad nung sa kin 35 each
big lug na parang sa pearl masters 95 each
double ended lug pang snare 65 each

i dont have all the prices. mas maganda bumili na lang muna kayo ng lahat parts tapos dalin nyo sa bahay para mabuo ko.

hi  peeves,
which sound better, acrylic or wooden shell?
Title: Re: where to buy a 16" floor tom
Post by: peeves24 on January 16, 2007, 11:01:42 AM
^^^ again, its a subjective question...it will always depend on the one who hears the sound

i like MY acrylic for their big sound. it might be because i choose shallow toms over the standard ones. it might be because my acrylic shells are thicker than my wood drums thats why they sound louder and project more. it could be because of better heads, im using aquarians on the acrylics against remo pinstripes on the wood.

hands down, MY acrylics sound better than MY wood drums to MY ears because i get more sustain out of them.

maybe if i own a pearl masters or any other high end wood drums, my opinion on my acrylics would change.

i'm from makati peeves. u wanna chek the place?
Title: Re: where to buy a 16" floor tom
Post by: peeves24 on January 16, 2007, 02:57:13 PM
lapit lang no prob. kailangan lang ng L-rods at heavy duty stands talaga. we cant setup the kit without them so we cant finalize this if nobody volunteers to bring them.

kung may magvolunteer, tuloy natin this weekend sat evening. 6pm onwards lang ako pwede.

tapos gep, baba ka na lang sa mrt guadalupe, dun kita hihintayin...kung matutuloy

gud day peeves.
ok na yun ginawa kong 16" BD. hindi na muna ko magpapagawa ng extra FT.
ok naman sound. since i used the JG 16, pwede kom parin syang gamitin na FT.

kung magpapagawa ba sayo, i like wood sana. where can i buy those stuffs?
Planning to make another snare like 12" or kung pwede 11". para terno dun sa 16" BD ko. :-)
maliit na set-up lang. :-)

thank you very much peeves.
and  yun eb sa place ko. if you want let's meet and check the place kung ok for eb.

ciao  :mrgreen:

wood? order ka na lang ng ddrum snare mas mura yun kahit may shipping

o kaya hanap ka ng extra tom, cut down na lang pero oorder ka pa rin ng snare wire abroad.

thanks peeves.

ano bang smallest size ng hoop na available dito sa pinas para sa bottom ng snare?
or can i just bring it to a machine shop and sila na mag cut para daanan ng snare wire?

salamat ulit

Post by: peeves24 on January 22, 2007, 12:23:17 AM
6 ang smallest

korek ka dun sa snare gate, dalin mo sa machine shop or ikaw na mismo mag drill kung medyo may confidence ka. clamp at drill lang naman yan

ok peeves, hanap nalang ako dito ng tom. p-cut nalang ng shell ha. :-D
and  wala din ako router, tama ba yun? yun pang cut ng bearing edge para magka-angle sya.

if ever na makabili ako, dalin ko sa house nyo and let's start cutting. how much? :roll:
wendy's nalang. hehehe :-D

meron ba sa lazer ng 11" or 12" na hoop?
what size do you recommend sa set-up ko?
brush lang naman gamit ko. for acoustic lang naman kasi.
is it ok to cut the snare wire then pahinang ko nalang sa
nagrerepair ng radiator?

thank you very much.
Title: Re: where to buy a 16" floor tom
Post by: peeves24 on January 22, 2007, 08:18:06 AM
walang 11" dito


meron ba sa lazer ng 11" or 12" na hoop?
wala pong 11, 12 meron

what size do you recommend sa set-up ko?
brush lang naman gamit ko. for acoustic lang naman kasi.
brush tapos 12? di kaya masyado namang cramped yun para gawin yung circular brush strokes?

antok na ko kagabi kaya nakalimutan ko ring sabihin na bibili ka rin ng batter at reso. si vinci ata merong 12" coated ambassador. yung reso side ang problema mo.

coated batter dapat para dinig yung strokes ng brush


is it ok to cut the snare wire then pahinang ko nalang sa
nagrerepair ng radiator?
di ko masasagot tanong na to. hanap ka na lang old snare wire tapos yun ang pagawa mo muna.

ganito kasi experience ko kapag nag subcon ako ng trabaho sa drums, sabihin na natin na magaling talaga si karpintero/pintero/taga hinang/etc pero wala silang attention to detail. masyadong mahalaga sa instrumento natin yun kaya nasayang lang lahat ng mga pinagawa ko sa ibang tao. kahit na anong paliwanag mo, hindi naman nila naiintindihan na dapat ganito, dapat ganyan. kaya eto, ako na lahat gumagawa. if you want something done right the first time...its best you do it yourself di ba?

but then again, sometimes its so much cheaper to just buy than build  :-D


thank you very much.
Title: Re: where to buy a 16" floor tom
Post by: bone on January 22, 2007, 05:48:28 PM
thanks peeves.

ok, so i think 13" nalang sa snare.

thank you very much sa mga detailed advises.
