John’s Burnt Orange Custom Made Drum Kit!

Burnt Orange Drum Set

John Ledingham's Custom Built Drum Kit

John A. Ledingham sent us a picture of the drum kit he built using Drum Building Secrets guide. Here’s what he had to say:

14″ (diameter) X 24″ kick
10″ X 13″ mounted tom
14″ X 9.34″ floor tom.

Finish is Burnt Orange, which matches my Gretsch drums.

They play beautifully with Aquarian heads on the kick and mounted tom and an Evans head on the batter side  of the floor tom.  I prefer to mount the tom alone on a cymbal stand…great mobility.

Very lightweight kit.

    Hi: I love the depth of the top tom, especially for the size of the kit. Shows that size is not that important
    for obtaining a punchy, strong sound.P23W

    Wow!! Very Nice! I’m really curious how that high tom sounds. I wish there was a small video of you playing the set, even just 15 or 20 sec’s would be great. They look nice though. Good work. Rock On!! Peace.
