STUDIO. There is an interesting story behind this #Camco #drumset and if you ask me in person I’ll tell you. 😂 It ain’t pretty, but it sure does get the job done in the studio! #studio #recording #drumstagram #drummer #drumporn #vintage #vintagedrums #recordingstudio https://ift.tt/2N7PM0A

This is one of the first drum kits that I made that had a larger strip of inlay. It’s an incredible kit that I love and use every week, but when I look at it I almost always see thing “mistakes”. Mistakes can be wise teachers if you listen to them. 😜🤜🤛👏👌🙌🤘#customdrums #drumset #drummer #drumstagram #drums #drumbuilder #sundayseat #drumstagram https://ift.tt/2YXXHQH

Can you relate to this? • @thelifeofphilipellis I used to play my drums for several hours a day when I was a kid...today I sat behind a kit for the first time in over a month. It seems that I only play drums at rehearsal these days...does anyone want to build an air conditioned, soundproof drum studio in my backyard? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #drum #drumset #drummer #camco #customdrums #customdrum #drums #drumming #handmade #exoticwood #drumstagram #drumporn #drumsdaily #instadrums #drumuniversity #drumslife https://ift.tt/2ZPfTxa

I have always loved the look of combining exotic woods! GREAT WORK BY @lovecustomdrums ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • Bubinga/mappa combo for @kareemheadleymusic 10,12,14s,16-22k and a 6x14” Snare. 10” not pictured. Had a great time building this kit. @evansdrumheads ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #drum #drumset #drummer #customdrums #customdrum #drums #drumming #handmade #exoticwood #lovecustomdrums #drumstagram #drumporn #drumsdaily #instadrums #drumuniversity #drumslife https://ift.tt/31jmeRv

I am blessed beyond measure to be the father of the 3 boys!!! Tough though it may be, it’s a calling worthy of my time and energy. May these boys grow up to love, follow and serve Jesus! https://ift.tt/2JXBte2

Flew to Indianapolis today. On the way I saw @supernana59 at the ATLANTA airport, and now we are sound checking at #tgcw18 to lead worship for 8000 women tomorrow!!! Super pumped to worship Jesus in different keys than I’m used to. Backline kit: @dwdrums collectors edition, with @sabiancymbals_official AAX cymbals all around! #drums https://ift.tt/2JKyAdd

I made a video about tuning your snare drum recently and it made me realize there are about a million ways to tune your drums, but there is no “right” way. Experiment, try new things, ask your sound engineer how it works in the house, adjust tuning for different genres, different venues, and always LISTEN to feedback from others! #drums http://www.youtube.com/philipellis1 for video! https://ift.tt/2sZbIiZ

I’m so thankful for my church @theaustinstone for preaching the Bible and pointing people to Jesus every Sunday. Excited that I get to worship Jesus with friends and family today! I’d love to see you today! Austin High downtown - 9am and 11:15 (also 5pm and 7pm that I won’t be at!) https://ift.tt/2HBNfFF
