Kit Walkthrough: Nicko McBrain (Legacy Of The Beast SQ²)

Hello guys and girls Nico with you from Iron Maiden here and I would like to introduce you to my marvelous

beast

legacy

, so not even the drums. I'm actually very excited to be able to sit here and go over a little bit about this beautiful battery. which I have been using on the Legacy of the Beast tour, this drum set was built for me by Sonal. The wood is German beech, which is an absolutely phenomenal dense wood, very hard, that gives you a phenomenal sound. They have been making amazing drums. forever this is a six by eight nine ply medium beech hull and it is the same for the entire battery and on the nine ply medium sq2 this is a six by eight this was made especially for me it is very difficult To the Boys and girls would like to buy a replica of this battery at some point, which we can offer you.

This one might be a little difficult, but anyway, the six-by-eight one is next door, which is eight-by-eight, so it's 6-by-8. At 8 then we have a 10-by-10 and then we have a 12. by 12 I say now we go from 12 to 13 beautiful sound 13 by 13 14 by 14 15 by 15 now we're getting serious so we have on the floor we have an 18 by 16 floor it sounds like a damn bass drum, so oh my sweet lord, okay, so I'll get to the base, John, the last one, but you know, I'll give it to you now, it's 24 in diameter by 18 deep, I want to hear. and of course the Beast case, well well on pom my life, what an impressive battery, there you have it, these are all the sizes of my batteries, moving on to the hardware, you can notice it's not corona, it's not corona , it is not chrome. silver clone and a normal crime that we have in the batteries is what we call silver crime.

I call it white crime, you can call it whatever you want, but chrome crime, we know this is smoky crumbs and about the battery hardware and the rims, everything on this battery is smoky crime. The reason I fell in love with smoked chrome is because of the drum art. It's pretty unique to the

legacy

of the

beast

tour and each drummer has their own story. We arrived late. on stage and in the story of this legacy tour, if you like what this does, if it was a really dark black chrome, I think it would have taken away the impact of the artwork on each of the drums, in other words, the boys There and so on, I really pulled the rabbit out of the hat using the smoke crime because they realized that it is more dramatic than this heart work now it was a trap and they were right, now it is impressive, the beautiful thing with a battery of the SQ 2 series.

You can put whatever you want in the program, since you may or may not know that I am a born again Christian if you didn't know it now, that's why I put the cross symbol on the tip of this drum. and light for the governor the eighth inch we have a Jaguar ad which is the growler they call it for the Jaguar car brand because I'm a big fan of it, we have dark gardener Eddie over here. I have a number to be stable on this one I have one of my favorite highest heads of all time Ed is kind of back in time here obviously we have Governor Private Governor Eddie on this drum here we have seven sanity with the head on four, yeah, that's good here, we've got killer eddie down here on the floor tom.

I have the first album that I work with with our main, so he gets the biggest piece of art, the biggest canvas, as we call it well, and more. on the bass drum we have our magnetic down here on one side and on the side we have Eddie from a matter of life and death and that's it and I'm very happy to spend this time thank you for sharing it with me and I appreciate Sonu karl-heinz manzil Thomas Bath and all the guys you know who built this beautiful battery. Thank you so much. I love you all very much and here we are going to play a little for you.

How does it sound good?
