CHARLIE BENANTE Posts A Look At His PANTERA Drum Kit

Charlie Benante has recently been out on the road with Pantera doing a great job paying tribute to Vinnie Paul… but what does his kit look like? In an Instagram post, Benante offered a description of his kit alongside a photo of it from behind.

"Drum post- a lot of people have been asking about the kit for this tour and here it is- it’s a Tama kit. The tom’s and floor tom’s gong drum are Star maple shells and the kicks are star bubinga – the snares are my signature snare and a starclassic G-maple. The cymbals are Paiste and as you can see a mix of Rudes and 2002s. Sticks are my signature Vic Firth, heads are Evans, Roland provided the td50x module with their triggers Porter & Davies thumper and that sums it up.

"I am so grateful for the people who help make all this happen. I couldn’t do it without the love and support. I have been endorsed by these companies for decades now, I appreciate what they do and how they do it. See you all at the upcoming shows."

Pantera was recently announced for both Blue Ridge Rock Festival and Welcome To Rockville, as well as a massive tour with Metallica and Mammoth WVH.
