Cowbell Drum
What is the best Drum Set up for rockabilly?
Hom many toms... cymble configuration... extras, ie. cowbell, wood block... what size bass and snare drums... Double Kick or single Ect...
A typical rockabilly configuration uses the minimal possible hardware and relies on the player's expression to create diversity in sound. If you're going for total authenticity a stand-up configuration is the most appropriate and therefore a likely candidate would be Yamaha's Club Jordan Cocktail Drum System.
Typical configuration with a stand-up kit would be 1 kick/tom, snare, fixed hats and cowbell. The kick is also the Floor Tom (look at the picture on Yamaha's website, you'll get the idea). A typical snare would be Tama's hammered steel shell "Soprano". This kind of configuration could also translate to a conventional kit and would work equally well (although you would of course have to add a tom and the kick would be the usual, lower sound).
Hope this helps.
