Video: Jason Bowld Mapex demo
Rhythm tutor shows off some mind-blowing stick skills
How's this for a Monday afternoon treat - Pitchshifter and Slaves To Gravity drummer (and Rhythm tutor, of course) Jason Bowld putting on a hard-hitting masterclass in a brand new video.
The clip shows Jase smashing all hell out of his Mapex Meridian kit, blasting through a couple of tracks for your viewing pleasure.
