I'm having a blast sanding down this used Ibanez GRX40 for my first project guitar! Can't wait to start staining and slightly reshaping it into my own guitar! #ibanez #ibanezguitars #custom #customguitar #ibanezgrx40 #fun #home #love (at Lawrenceville, Georgia)

I love what an 8 string can do with some reverb and delay! Ibanez RG8 strikes again. #ibanez #ibanezguitars #rg8 #guitar #metal #delay #reverb #recording #homestudio #music #musician #home #love #fun #cubase (at Lawrenceville, Georgia)

I am so stoked to join the Sabian Educational Network. Music (particularly drumming) is everything to me, and education is something I spend time with every day. Sabian are also the only cymbals that match the sounds in my head, so I couldn't think of a better family to work with.

That moment when you create an all-closed-hi-hat kit to make your students focus on dynamics and internally hearing the groove. #teacher #musicteacher #drumteacher #musicschool #teaching #drums #drummer #simmons #lovemyjob #lssm (at Lawrenceville-Suwanee School of Music)

I haven't always been an electronic drum fan, but after teaching on one for about a year I cane safely say they're awesome. The volume control, sound manipulation, and insane adjustability are amazing in the classroom. Props to Simmons for making such an excellent teaching tool. #drums #drummer #teacher #musicteacher #musicschool #lssm #music #electronic #fun #job #lovemyjob (at Lawrenceville-Suwanee School of Music)

Using a simple "binary" set to work on double bass patterns today. This is a great way to really work on anything from jazz comping, to Fat Backs, to footwork. How would you use it?? #drums #drummer #music #practice #doublebass #education #vicfirth #vf #tama #tamarhythmwatch #shure #shurese215 #sabian #remo #homestudio #home #love (at Lawrenceville, Georgia)

Always great to be home and play my dads old @ovationguitarsofficial Applause(circa 1980?). Ovation really does make the best acoustic guitars I've ever played; warm and bright, clear and comfortable. Here is a short snippet from one of my upcoming EP tracks. Hope you dig! #guitar #acousticguitar #ovation #applause #music #originalmusic #writing #recording #homestudio #home #love (at Macon, Georgia)

Almost done loading up for the gig tomorrow! First time with the @gatorcases Protechtor cases and I'm pretty pumped. Head out to the Georgia Theatre Rooftop in Athens tomorrow to see SuperPuppet make some noise! #music #drummer #drums #athens #slingshot #georgiatheatre #gig #livemusic #tamadrums #sabiancymbals #remodrumheads #vicfirth #excited #love #fun (at Lawrenceville, Georgia)

Working on some basic implied metric modulation today! The pulse moves from 8th notes to dotted 8ths. The most important thing is keeping track of where you are. I like to practice this loop while constantly counting to four. Try it out! #vf15 #drums #drummer #practice #metricmodulations #tama #tamadrums #sabian #sabiancymbals #remo #remodrumheads #vicfirth #vfas5b #homestudio #love (at Lawrenceville, Georgia)

In case none of you have seen the gorgeous inside of a @officialtamadrums Tama Silverstar drum. I get compliments on how amazing these things sound all the time, and I wouldn't trade them for any other kit in the world. #tama #tamadrums #tamasilverstar #tamoash #birch #drums #drummer #love #strongestnameindrums (at Lawrenceville, Georgia)
