djarrett Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 I got a cool handcrafted mini-shekerie that is made from upstate-South Carolina gourds. What did you guys get? DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Strat Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 No drum stuff (I played guitar first), but I got a set of those stickers that you put on the fretboard of your guitar to identify the notes you're playing. I also got a couple of cool, guitar oriented T-shirts. BlueStrat a.k.a.

Drumcanman Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 djarrett, I got a set of VRUKs for my double pedal Santa is so COOL! IMHO These are going to revolutionalize the way we play the bass drum and talk about adding instant power.

boose44 Posted December 29, 2002 Share Posted December 29, 2002 I got two nice presents.. First one was that I was invited to join an blues band. They play out regularly, and are a great group of guys to boot. Second present was that I sent the last payment in for my van. It's now paid off, which means extra $$ for more equipment! ho-ho-ho and Happy Holidays to all... -bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drumcanman Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 Dj, A Vruk is a pedal attachment that connects to your footboard and allows you to harness the power of your heel. For heel down players this instantly adds power and for heel toe players this gives you the ability to straghten out the notes between heel and toe so they sound more like a single stroke roll. For heel up I am still experimenting but I notice that there is instantly more power as the Vruk pulls the beater further back from the drum.I will have some video clips after I get back from NAMM See you there.Tim Waterson aka the drumcanman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzman Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 A DVD player from my son with all of the bells and whistles, and a very cool chess set in a stand. I really like chess.......tests my logic skills. I was hoping for some drywall to finish off my studio! Jazzman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
