+Vdrum Tips hahaha i have knees yes sir i am i don't play on top of my snare so I'm a bit back... i might have a video on my channel here of me doing a review on a product. you can see what I'm talking about
I think the tiers might be overkill? I think you could of achieved the same effect with using V bars to mount the crash cymbals. That way they would be farther out like you have them placed and the main racks close enough to mount your rack toms the way you want them. Don't know about anyone else, but I don't have that kind of money for all the extras? All those mounts and clamps aren't cheap!!!
Hey I tried looking for the email to send in photos and a vid of my kit to do the make over I have a simple but complex set up because I play backwards on a backwards kit with offset pedals and I want to eliminate all my stands I am using a standard front rack with curve bars and a couple stands but as I said I want to eliminate the stands and want to see your take on my kit set up
The kits I've seen so far don't look like they need a makeover. Looks like the owner isn't really hurting for money either. You should do this for say...a 10 year old with his first kit. Some one that really needs the advice and the parts instead of a drummer with a rack that cost a couple grand.
Gitar Zan thanks for the comment and for watching. You are right that these videos aren’t making over a set up for a drummer that really needs it. The purpose is to show all the possibilities that Gibraltar can offer you. Yes, when buying all these parts at once, cost can add up. But there are a lot of elements to each of these builds that people can use and adapt to their own set up.
I understand, its hard to make over a set that has nothing to make over. ha ha. I've been elected drum tech for my son which is cool but the problem is I'm a "Gitar" player (and keys) I did have a set of my own about 15 years ago and added a lot of Gibraltar things to it. So far I have bought him a 9713PM and a SCDC. Next is cymbal and hi hat stands. I dig the telescoping one. Maybe someday a rolling rack. One thing is for sure its going to be Gibraltar all the way.
i'm all for an individual's setup, etc, but Brent, seriously, who the hell gets 'all fouled up' when using a regular, standard rack tom placement? i mean, seriously, does it confuse some drummers that it's RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU?? if so, that person should maybe just play the triangle
Hi, thank you for your comment. That comment was made in reference to the hi hat placement. When you can play time on the hi hat without crossing your hands, your left hand is opened up more.
It actually does not take up much more space because the same amount of feet are on the ground. You do have to push each rack out about 3"-4" more than a traditional curved rack since the inner tier is closer. You are correct that it can be done on two curved bars, but his setup was already done that way. My purpose was to show an alternative way of doing it for those players who want more mounting space, as well as a different look.
GibraltarDIY Does the "Winner"/Selectee for Bret's KMOTM actually win the various rack pieces and hardware used in the video? 'Cause if you did that, it would be AMAZINGLY AWESOME!! I'm sure the goodwill shown in that would bring some drummers over to your brand for minimal cost and a Web Video if it were also a quote-contest-unquote. 👍🏼
I never really liked drum kits or setups like this I've always seen them as cluttered More is not always better I always picture the same type of drummers who play setups like these I call them busy drummers They always seem to be playing more notes Then what is necessary They're drumming always seems busy And lacks any real substance They're drumming to usually tend to be more noise than anything else
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FEATURING MY KIT!!! awesome idea with the tier racks might be looking in to that would make it so much easier!!!
I really liked this dudes setup, lots of ideas, sick set up joschua!
I wish that I had the money to have his kit lol!!!...
Very unique set-up.
I’v watched so many of these!!!!!!!!
Love the SoFi shirt! My brother used to work for them! 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow that's a unique kit. And that rack makeover looks so cool and much cleaner....sorry Joshua haha
+Greg Fawcett hahaha its all good I'm not mad. i totally agree with you.
maybe we can have brent play the kits at the end. it's just sad to see somebody sitting behind the kit & not playing a sound.
hello! beautiful and interesting drum setup, I like so much the idea. there is some TH-cam link where this drum set is played from owner?
Check here. I have
Or check my personal TH-cam drummer josh
Very reminiscent of Nathan Bulla's old setup (Auras), very cool.
Apart from the 2 snare drums and accessories, this kit is kind of similar to how Bill Bruford sets his drums.
Yea. That kinda was my inspiration
Looks mad!
How can you play this kit? My knees would bump against the toms.
+Vdrum Tips lol its not that bad only if you rally tall
...or if you don't have knees:D You are the owner right?
+Vdrum Tips hahaha i have knees yes sir i am i don't play on top of my snare so I'm a bit back... i might have a video on my channel here of me doing a review on a product. you can see what I'm talking about
Cool, I'll check it out!

Just a comment 6 years later... are you still working on a remote hihat?

you should "re-create" a remote hi-hat stand
Aaaaaand 3 years later and there’s still not a Gibraltar cable hi hat..... hope it comes out soon...
SICK!!!
+Logan Gibbs thanks
nice, unconventional & practical setup.
+kodiak wild thank you!!!
Brilliant? That looks like a cluster to me. To each there own.
What does the hardware cost for this build run?
this setup is sick, how do i submit my kit?
says watch the full video. let's see if it's at the end....
This is a bit wasteful seems like it could be shortened so you could use the ends
WHERE is that remote hat!?

So many jumpcuts

+GibraltarDIY i guess. but still...
actually it confused me at first I used to not use my rack in front I first just used floor toms but my new set up I am using them now
Your solution takes too much place (and money).... you can put all on just 2 curve rack bar!!
It actually does not take up much more space because the same amount of feet are on the ground. You do have to push each rack out about 3"-4" more than a traditional curved rack since the inner tier is closer.

Why are you yelling? FFS man....
Horrible set up that that guy has looks horrible
Everything ok but in the most of rack systems nothing hold the bass drum🤔
