OOH! OOH! These are SUPERCOOL!! Inspired by a customer's desire for the smallest, lightest way to play a great kit at a jazz gig, these sizes showed themselves to check off all the boxes! The mounted nests into the floor, they both nest into the bass. Ever the experimentalist, I decided to make two: one with 8-ply shells & 2.3mm hoops and another with 6-ply shells & 1.6mm hoops just to get an idea of how different/same they sound and to see how far apart they'd be on the scale. The 8-ply/2.3mm hooped version weighs in at 21.9 lbs for the three nested drums, versus 18 lbs for the 6-ply/1.6mm hooped version! Oh, and I worked up a couple of optional 12" snare drums that match -- a "Real" snare and a new "Unreal" one-headed snare with wires under the head. It's SHOCKING how big these drums sound! 6x10, 7x13, 8x16; plied maple; satin wax.
The Royal Academy of Arts doesn't really need any introduction but I'll provide you with one anyway. Founded by King George III all the way back in December 1768, its centuries long mission has been to promote British art and design via 'education and exhibition' (thanks, wikipedia!). Still going today, independent and privately funded, it seems to be doing this quite well. In terms of the 'education' aspect - the Royal Academy Schools form the oldest art school in Britain, and also . And for the exhibition - they possess a massive collection of art, much of it extremely rare. And they also champion âup-and-comersâ - which they bloody well should do. Go into the courtyard at Burlington House at the moment ad the first thing you shall see will be the current installation, which looks likeâ¦I dunno⦠WW2 era sea mines crossed with a touch of Scandinavian minimalism and some of the decor from a the Casino Night Zone in Sonic The Hedgehog 2
Anyhow, within this hallowed institution's hallowed courtyard you shall find The Keeper's House. It is called this because it was traditionally the place where the academy's Keeper lived (the current ones doesnât live there though, which seems sad considering itâs full of supercool shit). The Keeper did a lot of stuff (though looking after bees and errant footballs were not included) - I think mainly it comes down to administrative work and âkeepingâ the art collection. Keeping it looking pretty andâ¦educational maybe.
Anyhow, within The Keeperâs House is The Shenkman Bar (named after a notable RA architect, I think?). We were invited down to said bar because of a man/cocktail genius/excellent human being named Fabio Fritolli - who I met some months back at the Cichetti bar. Fabio is a bar consultant (I think) - and since this is his current project, he wanted us to come see it. All I can say is that everything is SERIOUSLY on fucking point and that Iâd love to know where he gets his ideas from. Also in attendance was a certain A list celebrity. She seemed also to be having a good time :D

Rockin' one of Auntie Skrina's outfits and her supercool new shoes, Joci started off the party by climbing the dragon statue.
Goldman Sachs have this supercool initiative - Community TeamWorks. We took a few kids out on a trip. The trip in question was meant for them, but we ended up learning a lot more.
About life.
If Momma finds out you are not wearing your supercool supersafe helmet ever again? You are not too big to be spanked.
Check out how "Stair-Step-y" these look (I just think that that's supercool!) When 8 toms aren't enough, go for 10! By combining our Standard and Large Concert Tom sets and adding in a fun new 9" x 11", this setup lets you whack on even MORE good stuff! Note: 11" tom head choices are very limited. 6x6, 7x8, 8x10, 9x11, 10x12, 11x13, 12x14, 13x15, 14x16, 15x18; plied maple; satin wax.
Vintage 1950s Kay K-125 electric guitar. It does have the typical scratches and scrapes of a 1950s vintage guitar and has nice k logo decal on the top.

1952 Kay 125 "Stratotone" Guitar w Jimmy Reed Thin Twin Pickup
The year was 1952. The reigning guitar gods of Kalamazoo, Michigan had just released their first venture into the world of solid body, single cutaway guitars.
Not to be outdone -- or perhaps more accurately, “to be totally outdone”-- the good people at Kay Musical Instruments in Chicago had some other ideas… Like, “Why not take one of those supercool, honkin’ blade pickups off one of our 'Thin Twin' Jimmy Reed guitars, and slap it on a plank of wood?” and, “Hey, why not attach the cord to the guitar, so you never have to go looking for one?”
The rest, as they say, is history, the Kay 125 (sometimes referred to as a “Stratotone” though I don’t believe that’s an official name).
This model was only available for about two years and came complete with tiger-striped “tortoise shell” mounting plates for the pickup and controls-- All for the amazingly low price of $49.50.
