new dog, old tricks.

my drumset has just been sitting in my room becoming severely emaciated over the past few years or so. I sold my cymbals, lost a drum on tour, and another drum somewhere in the wild sea of time that has been my life since high school. I want to build it back up, i forgot how truly awesome of a drum set that I have.. Pearl Session Custom Maple Fusion. they dont even make my series of drums anymore, so i really need to get going with purchasing from select drummers all around the world, nevermind that the maple session custom fusion series was very limited in original production, that should make it VERY hard to find. i decided i want a piccolo snare again too, or maybe a very small, deep popcorn snare, 10" or 12". the crack that the popcorn snare gives off is insane. the trash talk demo and s/t were recorded with that snare. but it wasnt mine so i gave it back when i quit. im thinkin a classier all around full sounding drumset with all the colors apparent.

heres what im thinking..

10" vintage fade maple session custom tom-tom with superhoop rims
12" vintage fade maple session custom tom-tom with superhoop rims.
22" remo pinstripe 4 batter head for my bass drum.
10", 12", 14" remo emperor coated batter tom heads for a real rich sound.
22" a custom ping ride, or a really thick K custom ride. brilliant finish.
18" avedis medium crash. traditional finish.
16" a custom crash.
14" a custom fast crash.
19" K custom dark china
13" A custom mastersound hi-hats
10" K custom splash

i love my snare, but it needs a new powersound head. and i might want to get either a deeper 6.5 inch snare, or a really thin piccolo snare.


drummers, if you know anybody selling any of this gear for cheap, let me know. and if you have had any of these cymbals, let me know your thoughts on them.
