  • Howdy from SW ohio!

    This Brad from SWohio. I'm a guitarist, but I just traded a guitar pedal for an old Roland TD-5 for our church. Thought I'd register & gain some knowledge here to know what direction to go with this. Cheers!

          Welcome mate. There is a wealth of knowledge here.

          Crazy world of drumming is an understatement mate. There are some real nutcases here.

          Im not going to point the finger but Sycle is one of them. Steer clear of this one cause he will screw with your mind.

              John, he can't screw with my mind....you forget I'm a guitar player! :P

              Kenster - I'll look that up! Basically...after reading ads and looking through posts, I guess I did ok for what amounts to a swap for a $150 guitar pedal.

              Thanks for the warm welcome! Y'all might convince me to take up drums after all. Then I, too, can "stick it to" the guitar players. lol

              BTW, if you look real close in that last photo...you'll see an alligator clip (the monster size) peeking from below the TD5 box. I had the typical mount, but no mounting clip. So, I grabbed 2 giant clips I had and screwed them in place...they hold like a champ!
