Carl Palmer’s new drum kit
August 14th, 2009
35 years or so after Carl Palmer got his first stainless steel drum kit it seems that he has done it all again! His website shows him sitting behind the new 100th anniversary kit manufactured by Ludwig and apparently given to Carl for his ‘return’ to Ludwig (that’ll be a freebie then).
A little smaller than the last stainless steel kit (the one featured on the ‘Welcome Back my Friends’ tour and live album) this one looks like it has two bass (kick) drums, two mounted toms and two floor toms.
Not being a drummer I don’t know all the technical details but they all have shells, heads, tuning bolts and are no doubt very loud when you stand next to them.
