This month’s Modern Drummer Kit of the Month comes from Diogo Veiga of Sao Paulo, Brazil. His kit is a Pearl Export kit with added 8” and 10” toms. At first, Diogo remembers that the Exports were only available with 12”, 13”, and 16” toms. It took six months for Diogo to finally get the additional 8 and 10 toms! For cymbals, Diogo uses a nice mix of Zildjian, Sabian and Wuhan. Depending on the gig he might replace his K crashes with A Custom’s. Diogo’s snares are a Pearl Masters MCX (5.5 x 14) and a Tama 4 x 12. We at Modern Drummer also like the use of the deep 13” tom as a floor tom. That’s a very creative “solve,” to a few different “problems.” Bonito Diogo!
