LOL, actually, I'm only 5'8" and everything is really close, must be picture effect. Looks closely, I have 1 on each side. We wrote a few songs where I did some intricate double bass work and it was waaaaay easy to have an extra hihat on my right + it looked cool as fuck HAHAHAHHAH
Yeh, funny, Pearl export was my first, then I bought my buddy's kit and cage (Andy Galeon/Death Angel) which I still have in my studio. Finally ended up at DW.
O, I was dead serious. Fellow DW drummer here and I was thanking you for telling me this is the real deal as my buddy is waiting for his covers. and Excited. Here's my kit.
Absolutely not. BUT, always used a licensed and bonded electrician that knows WTF they're doing. I'm lucky to have a buddy who is just that. Case of beer and 30 minutes, he was done. LOL
