I was really surprised to see how many drummers responded to the "Don't try this! You'll go insane!" thread. And so, since the guitarists in here are always talking gear, I thought it was our turn. So, what kinda kit do you play? You play in a group? I play a set of old (not vintage, just old) Ludwigs. 24" kick, 13" tom, and 16" and 18" floor toms and Paiste cymbals. Two 20" crashes, a ride, and 14" Sound-Edge hats. 'Tis my humble opinion that a Paiste Signature 20" Full Crash is the sweetest cymbal of all time. It doesn't go Tsshhh, it's more of a Buuusshhh like old school Ringo or Bonham.
The shop where I work gets a little Pork Pie from time to time; Mostly special order stuff. Looks like some good quality stuff, though.
A buddy of mine went balls out and had Pork Pie do up all custom (over sized) gear for him in a Zebra wood finish. I'm amazed the feeling those drums give off. Funny seeing a tiny guy sitting behind that set.
I used to dream about owning a Sonor kit in African Bubinga. They're so ridiculously expensive, though. I've played around on some V-drums a few times; They're lots of fun!
lol..nope..not kidding.. 40 and that didn't include any cymbals ..lol.. there were about 10 best i can remember and one big ziljian gong behind me.. it was a full cage kit double bass
LOL! I've got Jay who's gonna teach me guitar and you are gonna teach me drums. We will have us a band in no time.
