Michael Cavanagh "Mickey Cavs"

i personally asked cavs what drums he uses and he said to me he has 2 pearl 1960s maxwin drum kits. i have also seen photos of this on his instagram.

Michael Cavanagh uses the Gretsch Catalina Club Classic drum kit, as confirmed by a photo he shared on Instagram during the recording of "Murder of the Universe." He mentioned that he loves the sound of this kit, particularly noting its effectiveness for recording sessions.

Cavs seems to be using a C&C acrylic kit in “Amber” finish. In the YouTube video Cavs leads us by is rig where he shows is new custom kit (minute 0:45). Sizes are 20”x14”, 20”x14”, 13”x9”, 16”x16”.

In an Instagram story posted by Cavs before their acoustic set at Brisbane, he show's off his 1965 Ludwig Classic Maple Kit.

Pictured is a Ludwig 1960s Drum Kit in Burgundy Sparkle in FAB4 sizes (22x14, 13x9, 16x16).

We’ve seen Cavs use this kit very sporadically. It’s appeared in his home studio (as seen in the photo provided), has been used in the main Gizzard studio, and was featured in their mini-documentary “Sleeping Monster” for the Changes recording sequence.

Cavs picked up a vintage Slingerland Powerplay Cutaway Concert Tom Kit in Yellow, identified by the unique carve out on the resonant side of the drums. He's been using the kit for the "Phantom Island" tour in the United States.

Michael Cavanagh is seen using a Tama Superstar Classic 3-piece Shell Pack in Vintage White Sparkle during one of King Gizzard's very first performances in 2010, as documented in a video recorded by drbazh for RMIT University Bachelor of Contemporary Music Performance Exams.
