Gear

1974
I started playing on a vintage KINGS kit (produced by Tromsa GDR) A present from my parents.
Later I added a Sonor teardrop set to it to have a double bassdrum setup. My father spraypainted it white. Today that is seen as a deadly sinn! But back then I thought it was cool.

1980
I ordered my first new Pearl wood fiberglass Bassdrums (24, 24"). A year later, in 1981, I added 6,8,12,13,14,16,18, with a Ludwig Black Beauty 14x6.5" Supersensitive snare.

Around 1987, due to circumstances, I had to sell a large part of the kit and I stopped playing for a while

1992
After the birth of our second son I picked up drumming again. I had more time and money to spend so I bought a used BLX snare in Wine red, a couple of roto toms and some Paistes 505 to start playing again

1992-2015
I bought and sold numerous Pearl drums for the reason te be able to play and hear them all. It was great fun!

2015
I bought a new Masters Birch kit to be my main workhorse for live gigs. It is the BCX model that was only sold for two years. I started with 22,20,18,16,14,13,12,10,8 and the 5.5 and 6.5" matching snares. And I picked up producing my own sound at that moment.

2022
I downsized my BCX to 22,22,10,12,13,16,18"
The snares I use depends on the type of music I play at that moment.
