For this concert in October, 2008, DW made Neil a new, smaller kit. Michael D.F. Lowe (of NeilPeartDrumsticks.com) received the specs from Lorne Wheaton (drums and hardware) and Chris Stankee (cymbals) and sent them to me (thanks, Michael!). Reader Rodrigo Delaveau sent additional details about the snare. I attended this concert and posted the Buddy Rich Memorial Concert page.

It's here and set up fresh from the show - played heads and all!
Stop in and see it when you can.
We plan on having this great piece of drumming history on display for a long time. We want everybody to be able to check it out up-close, but eventually it's going to have to be packed up and stored for safekeeping.
Cymbals from the show were not an option for us so we're working with Sabian on getting some accurate replicas to keep this as historically correct as possible.
If you didn't make the show and can't get here before we pack it up you'll still be able to see and hear the kit on the next Buddy Rich Memorial Concert DVD.
Enjoy!

Neil also used this drum kit for sections of his Drum Channel Master Class (filmed before the Buddy Rich event). (This class is no longer available on the Drum Channel website.)
