Christopher Doom Schneider Biography
Here you can read what he was using before SABIAN:
TAMA Starclassic Maple
Starclassic Maple shells are 100% Maple. Toms and Floor Toms are 6-ply, Bass Drums are 7-ply and Snare Drums are 6-ply. They feature superior response, the warmth of premium maple shells, bottom end resonance, articulated highs, and the control of die-cast hoops. Tama’s “Back To Basics” approach to the Starclassic series includes: ultra-thin rigid shells and die-cast hoops, making Starclassic Maple one of the top choices for professional drummers today. Bass drums come with matching wood hoops. Toms come with Star-Cast Mounting System. Starclassic Maple drums are not drilled for bass drum or tom mounts.

Hello christoph, I would just like to say your skill in the art of drums is unmatched, and I know that you are an incredibly busy guy but there is just one thing I would like to know and that is where can I get a snare drum like yours it sounds sooo good I cream myself everytime I hear it!
Haii Kevin go into Tamas homepage and select your country and klick on products and than signature snare drums and than klick on Bill Bruford i hope it could help…..
RAMMSTEIN rules for HEAVY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all I wish is that I could have a drum kit as good as yours U mean two bass drums thats sick, you rock dude peace out…

In the last albom Rozenrot you plays sometimes like the member of Slipcnot! And it’s GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Love the style that Schneider has…
The Drumkit are excellent.
And the style of play the drums it's so cool !!
I just have to continue playing my drums like Schneider… but it's almost impossible for me xD

"Impossible it's nothing" – If I continue playing like this it will be great.
