Take a tour of Mike Mangini's Dream Theater drum kit

It's been 10 years since Mike Mangini took his place on the throne for prog-metal titans, Dream Theatre.

In the video below, Mike takes Thomann on a tour of his live rig - which he insists is really "not that much" drums and cymbals -  centred around Pearl Masterworks shells, Pearl hardware, Zildjian cymbals, Roland electronics, Remo heads and Vater sticks.

Stuart has been working for guitar publications since 2008, beginning his career as Reviews Editor for Total Guitar before becoming Editor for six years. During this time, he and the team brought the magazine into the modern age with digital editions, a Youtube channel and the Apple chart-bothering Total Guitar Podcast. Stuart has also served as a freelance writer for Guitar World, Guitarist and MusicRadar reviewing hundreds of products spanning everything from acoustic guitars to valve amps, modelers and plugins. When not spouting his opinions on the best new gear, Stuart has been reminded on many occasions that the 'never meet your heroes' rule is entirely wrong, clocking-up interviews with the likes of Eddie Van Halen, Foo Fighters, Green Day and many, many more.
