    Re: Considering switch from A-kit to E-kit advice

    I was able to test drive both brands last night. It is such an awesome store and I'm lucky to have access to it. I originally purchased my acoustic kit from there a few years ago and didn't realize...

    Re: Considering switch from A-kit to E-kit advice

    Great feedback. I haven't actually played an electronic kit yet so that's my next step. The big decision will be Roland vs Yamaha. I'm going to head to Guitar Center and the local drum store...

    Hello all: I've been a member for a few years but am more of a lurker than a poster.

    I began drumming about 4yrs ago and took lessons for about 18 months before stopping due to starting a family....

    Re: Need help with drum thrones

    A throne that is mentioned on here a lot is the Roc N Soc throne.
    It costs about 5 times your budget, but IMO it is worth every penny.
    A good throne is probably the best investment you can make for...
  5. Poll: Re: Sabian XS20, should I go Brilliant or Traditional?

    I take it you got them cheaper than you were planning on paying anyway?
    If so, that's awesome and congrats!

    Re: crappy b8 14" hi hats

    I would say $50 is a good starting place as well.
    I sold a pair of B8 hats for that amount a couple months ago.
    Good luck with the sale!

    Re: K Custom Dark Cymbals + More!

    The drums were Yamaha but I didn't look at the series. They were in rough shape so I didn't want to bother with them.

    I definitely do not miss playing the B8's that's for sure! I'm going to...

    K Custom Dark Cymbals + More!

    I picked up some new (to me) cymbals on Craigslist today and think I got a pretty smokin' deal on them. I picked up a 20" K Custom Dark ride along with a pair of 13" K Custom Dark hi-hats as well as...

    Re: Double Bass Pedal Opinions

    You should check out Taye pedals in that price range. You could get the PSK602C or for $170 or PSK702C for $200. My drum instructor has been using the 602C for years and really likes them. I have the...

    I'm looking for a new ride cymbal and just can't decide what I should do. I currently have a 20" B8 ride that I really do not care for.

    Re: Ported or Solid reso kick head ?

    I definitely prefer a ported head. I don't like the feel of a non-ported head and I like the sound of a ported head better.

    Re: The Ol' Throne....

    And yet another vote for the Roc n Soc Nitro throne. It's the first and hopefully last throne I'll ever have to buy, and like everyone else has said...it's worth every penny.

    Re: Should I take lessons

    I echo PB's comments about accountability. Sometimes I need motivation after a day's work.
