Premier 717 Elite Black custom kit

The Premier B717 black Elite concert tom kit is perhaps the most well renowned of Phil Collins' drum kits.

He has had this kit since 1976, which was his go-to drum kit for recording work up until 1985. The kit in particular defined his signature "barking toms" sound. And it also played a key role in the drum sound on Peter Gabriel's "Intruder" (followed by Phil's own "In The Air Tonight"), which pioneered the gated reverb effect.

For live concerts, Phil played this kit on the Wind And Wuthering (1977) and Abacab (1981) tours with Genesis.

The 1977 configuration of this kit included 10" and 12" Remo Rototoms, which were later omitted.
