hi gurupimpi
I think changing the skins on the woodcrafts would solve your problem..I have meinl professional.When I bought the drums I was frustrated that I couldnt get the sound I wanted.The skins were very dry and had lots of overtones..so I changed the skin on the conga with Guanex head ..thick...the sound is finally what I wanted...with a quality mule skin your woodcrafts should sound amazing..
Isaac sells mule skins..I contacted him and he told me that shipping to slovenia is not a problem..maybe we can order together and we split the shipping costs?

Pandeiro!

Zakon stari!!!

Ampak lej, jst sm slisou, da se da u Italiji, ful blizu meje nabavit Mule skins-e po dokaj solidni ceni, kar je pa najbolj pomembno, koze so hude!

Jutr poklicem frenda in se z njim dogovorim, OK?
Nimam avta in če se zmenva...? S kje si?

Lahko me pa u cetrtek poklices na 041 295 156, do cetrtka mam frke pa se ne bom oglasal na telefonske klice!

Kukrkol, fajn je u narecju nasem slovenskem pisat!

Sorry guys, had to write it down in my own language!

Groove till you Live!

Hello everyone! It is quite a while i checked this forum,...


I bought myself an apartment so the palladiums will have to wait! :) Anyway i was unable to practice on my congas because i was renovate the place. But now i have time! And i will keep my two drums for a while at least until i get a little more expirienced!As i said i am a pure beginner! I also went to try Palladiums and since then i now i will not buy them because i am too short and they are a little too big :). And when it will be time for new one i will defenitly buy "the best one" because:
- i don't won't to buy a new one for years to come
- i will practice with much more satisfaction since i will know that this is it

Goran - svaka ti cast za palladium! ( i am very happy for u that you own a palladiums). And Hrvoje Rupcic (Cubismo) is the right one to teach you how to play congas,other percussion instruments,...

Pegula - a music store called Bam Music on Trzaska (Ljubljana) is now more than a year or maybe 2 selling a palladium (all 4) drums so i think they will lower the price!? :)

Facundo - thanks for links! i will check them out!

GuruPimpi - what is the name of your group and which style do you play!? Funk band K.U.T. gas...!?!? tell me more,..

And finaly i got now time to check the forum and i must say thanks especial to people like Abakua,YC,zaragemca,..ect.

Jure!

Hello al zdravo! :D

I played and recorded with many bands here in Slovenija...

Moveknowledgement, K.U.T. GAS, Dan D, DMP, Tabu, Dom za sanje, DJ-ji, LoveTown Project... many of them unknown or found just for 1-5 gigs. I performed in some theatrical and Dance performances... I even played with Magnifico on Cvičkarija in Ljubljana... :D Nice guy indeed!

My primary band today is a Fusion Jazz Etno Comic band called ''Od Franclna Mozgani'', ''Frank's Brain'' in a simple english translation.

We are having a gig in Sezana on 25th of March!

Vabljeni!

Groove on guys and keep the Hand floating steaddy!

Hvala, but Rupcic is probably in Zagreb. I'm in Porec and can't go to Zagreb often at the moment because of my job :(
I'm not sure he is giving instructions either..

For now I'll have to go with the instructional videos I'm afraid. :p

P.S.: Well, Giovanni does not look being too tall either :p
