Okay fine, I'll talk about these freaks.

Finally, the ugly boys. Im the lad from cashies modbury who sold them to you, soon as I saw them I knew I needed to summon you. It genuinely sucks to hear they aren't tuning, but Im glad they are with your collection where they can amuse, terrify, and generally confuse everyone that see's them. Much love, keep up all the awesome stuff you do.

Fiberglass boatbuilder here. That kit probably never tuned up from new. It was made using a chopper gun, which is a little air-powered contraption that chops up strands of fiberglass, and then shoots it along a resin stream to lie in the mould. It's an incredibly inconsistent process, and it causes a lot of problems for fit and finish. its also a very cheap process, and it requires edge-finishing with hand tools at the end (to get the trimmed edges flush). You should NEVER use that process for something requiring a tolerance of oh, more than an inch.

I've never seen uncircumcised drums before.

They look like they are desperately waiting for you to feed them some worms.

A co-worker of mine, in the early 1990s had a set of Staccato Thunder Horns. He had them set up in the shop at work so he could play them on breaks and afterhours. I remember wanting to get on them myself SO BADLY. And then one day, when no one was around I got my chance. And they sounded like absolute shit. It was like wanting to drive your favorite sports car for years, and then finally getting your chance and you find out that Fiero isn't a sports car...

They really dissect Homer Simpson for this one...

"They look real goofy when you separate them out like this"

As if they don't already look goofy as a set.

But wow, they are definitely a conversation starter.

My favorite story from old drum sets is that the reason kicks are called that is because a band leader didn't want to pay for multiple drummers so he literally told the snare drummer to just kick the bass drum, and this went on until pedals were invented

[Skeleton_Dork]

The giggle after you slapped the floor Tom 😂

In the late 1990's I was in a METAL band in Los Angeles and my drummer had two sets of these that he build into a monster double kick set up and they were incredible. Other than the fact that they took up the whole damn studio, they were great, sounded amazing, looked amazing and really got attention at gigs. But they were a night mare to transport and set up.

Well, I don't find 'Boring Time' boring at all! 😄 One thing I've always loved about being a drummer and us drummers collectively is that we can geek out with enthusiasm to each other over our instrument for hours! 😄
Great collection of kits, too! 🤩👍 Would be cool if he'd also one day find one of those early 80's Capelle ones, with the extra-long bass drums à la Alex Van Halen! 😀

Many years ago, I went to a music trade show in London, and Staccato drums had a stand.
Now, I'm not a drummer, I'm a synth tech, but I had to talk to these people because their kits were just so "out there".
And their product specialist was a certain gentleman by the name of Chris Slade.
Later to be drummer for Uriah Heep and later AC/DC.
Lovely chap who explained to me the acoustic benefits of such instruments.
But I have still yet to work out what the odd "lip" on the top edge of the horn does.
