Your latest G.A.S. purchases

I bought something that costs only like ten bucks, but makes your drums sound a helluva lot better.

never even heard of moongel. Is it really that much better than some scrunched up tape?

the snare is not in tune but you can hear the difference pretty clearly, right? It took about 3 seconds to put the moongel there, compared to the minutes of tweaking when using tape to get even remotely similiar results
 
I would die if it were stolen! I never dreamed of owning such a nice axe. I ordered it directly from Japan and it only took 3 days to get to my house in the US. Unfuckingbelievable.

Some more pics for your viewing pleasure.

I ordered it from Nasu Takahiro at Katana Guitars in Tokyo. I was shocked when it showed up at my door in 3 days. I just can't get over that.
 
Yeah, there's a lot of personal integrity caught up in what Japanese people commonly do as a trade. A lot of their own pride and honor is in the craft, so it's not surprising to me at all! 'gratz, by the way.
