No, I think he was using a Boner Klon clone instead of a Balls Klon clone.https://www.instagram.com/p/BTStLhzB4nX/

Then what looks like a FET 47 in front of the kick.Speaking of micing and mics, Mike is on another plane now with weird mics. I have no idea what he used in this session. What are these two in MS? MTAR come back to the board, please!

I went down to FM MTAR's studio (Russian Recording) in Bloomington, Indiana last week. I brought my late '60's Beverley kit. 3-ply mahogany with re-rings and rounded over bearing edges for a sweet, chubby thump. Mike Bridavsky does an amazing job recording drums. Love this studio.
