Don't say you're never gonna have it fam.  Don't even joke like that.  Just work hard, put together a savings plan and one day you will have one.  I didn't get my first drum set until I was 22.  Up until early this year, I got my first high end kit.  For years I stared at drum brochures, day dreaming about finally owning one.  My next goal is to own a...naw.  I won't spoil it for yaw but just be on the look out cause its coming soon!

But has anyone played (or know of anyone)  that has played that thang?  The Phoenix is a mythical creature, and this kit also fits the same bill...  LOL!

I have personally seen one from 4 ft away. The one in the bottom pic actually at Memphis DRum Shop. 4-pieces is $6,756... the rack is around $466 for the the front (shown in the pic).

Teddy Campbell is in the add in the latest intestate catalog with his Phoenix setup so he will probably rock it at his clinic on Nov 3rd. I'll let you know how it sounds.


PS: let me throw in a shout out for the Brady kits. They are some very fine furniture as well.

While we are talking about buy new kits and all just make before you do this. Use that money to pay off your credit cards. They are talking about thats the next thing to start trippin. http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/Banking/CreditCardSmarts/the-next-meltdown-credit-cards.aspx
 I paid mine off before i bought the kit in full and i feel great by God's blessing to get from under that pressure of bill collectors callin me.

Yeah, both kits are on the Memphis Drum Shop site.

But has anyone that you know of played it?  The running advertisement is all good (as well as the pictorial from Yamaha's Groove All-Stars), but can we get a Yamaha Artist playing one on a high quality video?  Is that too much to ask for?

It's like, they're trying to sell something without giving consumers an opportunity to 'witness' the 'ultimate' drumset. 

I doubt that they'll 'allow' Glendon to play that thang.  It'll probably be a Maple or Birch Custom Absolute...

It makes no sense to me.

I get your point... the clinic will be the tale-tale I hope.

That's an extra-sweet kit, but you sure you didn't purchase it prematurely?

Unless you have made dramatic improvements since you posted that clip, a starter kit would have been more appropriate.

Meh, Not lately, Jordan quality has been horrid since 03.. The best you can do with todays Jordans is pray that they don't cut your foot while walking.. >:( :D

Now if you were comparing 03 and earlier I would have to agree sir.. Sick kit no the less sir.. :D
