Today were checking out another weird drum set! I was able to find this Remo Legero Drum Set on a Goodwill auction and was able to snag it for a decent deal. It didn't come with a snare drum but I happened to have a 14x3.5 Remo Mastertouch snare laying around that I've been meaning to fix which turns out that is the snare that would have came with the Legero Drum Kit. This kit was marketed as a light weight drum set for those that are tired of loading their full sided kits in and out of gigs every night. The drums stack into themselves and fit in a single case. By no means does this replace a normal drum set, but still is a cool sounding and weird looking drum set! The toms are 10x4, 13x4, 16x5, and the kick is 22x6. I think its safe to say that this kit is ahead of its time by being one of the first pancake drum sets!

I had a drum instructor/high school band director in the 90’s that had this kit. He had wooden prosthetics due to losing his legs in a car wreck, and could still transport and set these up himself (he kept his purple Premier’s from the 70’s at home). They sounded really nice and the concept was pretty well executed. Remo Acousticon drums are actually great sounding. Their later offerings were really nice kits, and they would custom make a wrap from any image you sent them. I really wish they’d taken off.

I went from being the first to arrive and last to leave guy to being mid-tier load in/out gent with the rest of the band. 100% satisfied with my purchase and thrilled to hear again the sound those shells made when being pulled out of the soft case.

I've wanted one of these: it's the Pearl Rhythm Traveler way before that kit existed. And yours came with Pinstripes pre-fitted! And you're right: 3" is the smallest diameter difference that allows drums with regular hoops to nest. Frame drums nest a little better, but it's a different sound.

I still have mine with the original hardware. I recently brought it in from my garage after years of having it stored there. I cleaned it using your cleaning tips. I updated my cymbals and pedal. Replaced all the heads. I used your recommended heads for the snare. However, I used Aquarian Studio heads for the toms and bass drum because I wanted to tune them lower to get a deeper warmer sound. I'm pretty happy with it. It's the only drum set my wife lets me keep inside the house because of its compact size it sounds great, and I'm pretty happy with it.

Wow, sounds really good with new heads .im 59 and I remember that when I was growing up I was so poor id cut drums in half and make a bigger set . I played a long time with no cymbals. Once no footpedel. But you learn a lot of cool beats . It made me better when I had a real set of drums. But I still miss the mix match sets I made , you value things more when it's something that you put together and worked to get the money to get the pieces to just make it work. No one ever took the time to help me or show me. I had to learn on my own. But it makes you value things more , not just money value, never had money like that. I'd collect pop bottles and sell them to buy little things to make my mixed up drums work. Lol most kids today just expect to have the best of everything and I teach my sons that you have to work to get the things you want. Life wasn't easy , do good things and good things happen.

Looking for a way to reduce the number of peices to transport, I bought a cheap set on ebay, cut the shells in half and use triggers so the audience still hears a good tone. Wrapped them in contact paper. None of these would I have done without the inspiration and guidance from you videos. I put a front head head on the BD and it sounds great. I have Evans coated G2 heads on the toms. They sound OK. There's only so much you can do with single heads and shallow shells. It's impossible not to think of "In the Air Tonight" when playing them. It works for me. Thanks David for the history lesson. Keep it up.

I have a Tama Silverstar Cocktail Kit, you do still make some tonal sacrifices with nesting kits but honestly, I rarely host band prac at my place so the fact I can have my main kit set up at home and just take one shell bag, one hardware bag and one cymbal bag, and have it set up in someone else's house in about 5-6mins makes up for that. It's only practice anyway so I generally just rag the toms and don't worry about tuning too much. It was also great when I taught lessons in my spare room before COVID, let the student use the main kit and I'd sit at the cocktail to help break down concepts if they were ever stuck

Actually one cool ‘old school’ item Remo used to have was that contraption pictured on the kick drum in the Legero add: the donut ring muting system. It worked fantastic. The only problem was the plastic ring eventually cracked around the drum bearing edge and was useless. Remo also invented a dampening system (back then) that used cotton ‘snakes’ stuffed with beads, that were held in place by aluminum/Velcro brackets. They were used sitting against either the batter or reso head…or both. In fact, today I use a Dollar Mart door draft stopper for the same purpose. I tape one by the reso and one by the batter and my kick sounds killer. THAT’S a hack you should film and try!

I have a custom made nesting kit, with 22x16 bassdrum and 12x6 and 14x10 toms. The toms just go inside the bassdrum, which has been cut in half a little before the resonant heads lugs. There are 3 simple latches that you just open to open and close it, easy to use. Also there's the option to leave the bassdrum open, or use both of the sides as double bass drum. Saves a ton of space in the car when you can ditch two tom cases! Honestly one of the most resonant kits I've heard, but the shells are thin and all the hardware are made out of wood (and tom mounts out of aluminum), so they can resonate freely. Also the whole shebang weights less than my previous Pearl Vision 22" bassdrum. The bassdrum is a cannon, I can't perceive anything significant effect from cutting up the bassdrum, and the shallow toms don't have any drawbacks IMO. PS. Deeper toms might have a longer sustain, according to the old Drum Tuning Bible, but you can screw up sustain in any drum with bad tuning, so I'd say the benefit is theoretical at best.

I did something like this to an old Premier kit I bought from a friend for $100.00. The original kit was needing to be moved out every Tuesday for music night and it was just too damned heavy, so I created a jig for shell trimming on my table saw and went at it. Losing the lower head and half the shell for the toms lightened it up a LOT, and cutting the kick drum in half (but keeping both heads) made the set so light I could almost carry it with one hand. The Premier shells were also some sort of compressed cardboardy product, but before reinstalling the hardware, I painted the bare interior with a coat of "wood hardener" (no jokes, please) that permeated into the cardboard material and added some extra rigidity to the shells. I don't think the kit sounded any worse after the makeover, it saved my back and we used it for several years until my drummer buddy who was playing this kit deserted the band one night during practice. To save the band, I switched from playing guitar back to drums, but eventually brought my Yamaha Stage Custom kit out of storage and played that for the remaining years until Covid killed the band (not literally - we all lived). I sold the Franken-Premier kit for $150 on Craigslist!

i have one of those snares and its great, specialy for hiphop, dnb but could even work for metal. there are even videos of billy cobham playing one as a sidesnare. found mine in the trash ;) you could also to build a nesting set with those drums, just take another drumset and use the remo drums as top part or for the reso side of the kickdrum. i use something simular for my giging around town. thanks for the video!
