    Default New Drums for my High School!

    So, word is, that my High School is going to replace all the drums on the line, pit percussion, and some of the low brass instruments. Estimated bill right now is $30,000. I'll let you know when we get word of what we're getting, but im sure they'l be nice. Hope i get to buy off a couple of the old stuff.

    Thats great man!! Consider yourself lucky that your school can afford it haha. I never played in jazz band but im sure that its gunna be awesome. You know your not gunna do anything the first couple days they come in but mess with em. Your teachers gunna need someone to get everything set up why not the kids! Hopefully, maybe your teacher isnt that cool lol.

    $30k on new percussions wow. Public schools in Cali just laid off 15,000 teachers. Man you guys are really lucky! Schools in my district are hurting and cutting or dropping music programs and sports programs.

    Don't try to buy any of it. Borrow whatever you need for whatever amount of time you need or whatever your director or drumline instructor limits you to. Trust me on this one. I borrowed a set of pearl quints (we have yamaha now) for a few months and in the last week, cleaned them up all nice and new, brought them back, he didn't notice anything though. An added bonus is that I made quints for next year. We got the show music today

    nice man! my schools in basically the same boat as yours. we have at on of boosters and stuff so hecka (if wee needed to) we could replace all the intruments in the band. crazy thing is 1/3 of my schools in band. and weve had the same teacher for 30 years and before that had a great one so our shcools been know for band for like 50 years now. its nice because we dont have to worry about band getting cut or anything. and its soooo nice to be able to go to our percussion instructor and the end od the year, and b e like "hey we need new crashes. lets go zildjoan K stadiiums." like seriously. this year were getting a new kit we are going from a ludwig (which i might get when we buy anew one, itd be nice to have 2 kits) to a catlina maple. and our cymbals are vintage A's that soudn amazing and we have K crashes and K continople orchestra cymbals.

    We have the best cymbals in the area... but no manufacturer or type can be made out except one cymbal with "zildjian" on it.

    Years ago when I played we had all Ludwig drums and I would still like to have one of the ones we used back then today because they sounded great.
