[sjon014]

Bar42, Tomas Morato, QC (across Purple Haze)
The drumkit is a new wine-red Sonor 507 with stock heads and standard sizes. The snare and mic-ed bass drum sound good with minor adjustments, but the toms need a bit more tuning. The hardware's all Sonor (200 series), and they're in good condition. The ride stand's generic though, and the boom arm kinda bows against your will. The cymbals are all Planet Z which are in good condition, but who wouldn't replace these?
What to bring: A complete set of better cymbals, and a ride stand or cymbal arm.

[wilpredo]

Cosmo Bar Greenhills: The Drumkit is a 5-Piece Gretsch Catalina (not sure if it's the catalina ash model) 8",9",14" toms,  22 kick, 5X14 Snare. All stock heads pero ok ung tuning, ung snare lng mejo kelangan i-tune. All parts of the drums are mic-ed and is surrounded by fiberglass

Cymbals: A set of ZBT Cymbals

Hardware: Straight, boom and hi-hat Stands, all in great working condition (no wobbles) Drum throne is perfectly useable, i'm not sure what pedals they have kse when we played may pedal na nakalagay dun na alam kong hindi sa bar kse DW5000 double pedals eh hahaha (pero malamang Gibraltar pedals ang nandun) 

What to Bring: Actually sticks lng, pero shempre iba parin ang sigurado, dala nlng kyo ng crash

Updated!

[wilpredo]

mga ser, tanong ko lng kng ano gamit sa Route196 ung dating inihaw republic yta Salamat! 

[Gep]

It's a 4-piece Tama Swingstar custom with stock cymbals (actually it's 5-piece, ipaalam mo lang kung pwede hiramin yung 2nd floor tom hehehe).

The only qualm I have with it right now is that its hihat clutch is already broken.

I made a review about it. Check the other reference thread.

Edterns Music Bar and Resto, Roxas Blvd.
The kit is a 90's Pearl Forum with a 14" snare, a single 12" rack tom, a 16" floor, and a 22" bass. The toms sound good with pinstripe batters and reso's, and the bass drum is mic-ed. The snare is pretty bad though. Most of its Ambassador's coating is gone, and a bad throw-off coupled with Gibraltar 42-wide snare wires give the drum a very undefined and inarticulate sound when hit. The cymbal stands are generic and lightweight, and lack felts. The pedal is generic, but works decently, if not for the slight footboard wobble. The hi-hat stand is a heavy-duty Gibraltar 6607, but the lock on the clutch is rusted. The hi-hats and crash are old 14" and 16" ZBT's respectively, while the ride is a 20" Sabian ProSonix. All cymbals are in good condition, but the ride sounds a bit too colorful for my tastes. Oh, there's a leather drum throne too.
What you need to bring: Snare, Felts, Bass Pedal, hi-hat clutch. Cymbals too, if you prefer.

mga sir tanong ulit, musta gamit sa BG's Bar sa Pasay road makati? 

[sjon014]

Club V, Makati
What do you get when you cross a perfectly good 90's Pearl Export with a full set of Century drumheads? Answer: A bad kit. That's what Club V's drumset is all about. The whole set is very badly maintained, with rusted hardware and dented heads on the whole set, and  unfortunately, the snare's the worst. The snare wires are ripped from the bracket, I had to duct tape them to the head just to get any semblance of a snare sound. It's missing a couple of lugs too so tuning is going to be impossible. The toms sound better, but not by much. The bass drum has an aging century head on the batter side, but by all means is the best sounding drum in the kit.

The hardware is composed of a straight pearl stand which has an unadjustable cymbal tilter set at around 45 degrees from the top (For someone who mounts their crashes straight, it's a big problem), a more friendly boom stand, a working Pearl hi-hat stand with a broken clutch, and a very bad generic pedal. It's double chain, but it's set very low, gets stuck, and has delay in the mechanism. Bad.

The kit has a redeeming quality though. The cymbals are all B8's: Med-thin hats, a thin crash, and a ride. They are as dirty as the rest of the kit, but they're surprisingly in good condition.

What you need to bring: Absolutely bring a snare, hi-hat clutch, and a bass pedal. Bring stands if you can. Heck, bringing your whole kit isn't a bad idea!

Long review. Sorry, I was a bit frustrated. I usually bring my snare and pedal, but I heard that the house kit was an Export so I left them at home. A very bad decision indeed. The bar could really make the kit sound much better SIMPLY by buying better skins and new snare wires on the Export snare.
