    Default sweet deal!

    Found this on craigslist and jumped on it:

    I picked up yesterday a Yamaha DTXpress Special IV with the "real" hi hat and the 3 zone cymbals and snare pad. They guy included the big SKB trap case that holds the entire kit when you break it down ($309.99 on MF), Gibraltar throne ($65 on MF) and bass drum pedal ($50 on MF) and an extra 3 zone cymbal that he never used due to not having an extra cymbal stand ($150 on MF). Paid $400 for the whole deal. I think I got a great deal, what do you guys think?

    Sounds to me like you got an excellent deal alright. I'm betting that $400 for the kit alone would have been a good deal.

    Thanks PB and Late8.

    Yeah, I sure will post some pics soon. I was just shocked when he reported he was gonna throw in that SKB case. I knew that was the icing on the cake! When I found out that they retail for over 300 bucks I was pretty pleased as you can amagine.

    I might start use it for gigs in little bars instead of hauling my big set of Pearls.
