woodlakesound Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 http://www.whitneydrums.com/ Forgot to actually write something...what do you all think of these? His shop is just up the coast about an hour away. I like the mounting scheme if anything. For portability as a studio kit, it could be relocated pretty easily. And the sound? I haven't a clue. Anyone played these before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djarrett Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 You know, two years ago ... I went to PASIC (Percussive Arts Society International Convention) and saw a concert that featured the Norht Texas One Oclock Jump band with their drummer ... and featured Greg Bissonette as guest artist. The drummer for the band was playing one of these sets (or something that looked incredibly like them). He set up in about 4 minutes and broke down even faster. His drums sounded so good. I was amazed that there was that much sound from those small drums. I would at least check them out if you are that close. Let us know what you think, DJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodlakesound Posted September 22, 2003 Author Share Posted September 22, 2003 He set up in about 4 minutes and broke down even faster.I bet those were the Penquins. The're supposed to have a big sound given their compact appearance. Since it's 75 degrees in Santa Barbra where his shop is and 98 degrees here in the Valley (San Fernando not corn), I think I'll go check um out if only escape the blazing heat. I'll let you know if sound COOOL.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrummerRob Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 I got to play those drums a couple years ago at NAMM and I have to say I will always remember how full they sounded. They had one of the best sounds I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Injun Killer Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I play Peavey Radial drums (now discontinued), which sound phenomenal. They sound bigger than they really are. The Whitneys look similar, except in the Peavey set only the snare looks like that, while the toms have a protruding bridge and a recessed shell.
