lol... I've definitely done that before! Guilty as charged!
So I love my Mapex Armory kit. It is phenomenal and has a great sound/great tones. However, I made a trip to Guitar Center last night just to have something to do. They had a six piece Mapex Saturn kit set up. I made the mistake of sitting behind it and playing it. Sigh..now I have to save up $2200 to I can buy it.

Yep. First rule; Do NOT go into music stores unless you are specifically needing something. Browsing leads to buying.

Play the SONG......not the DRUMS!!!
"I think that feeling is a lot more important than technique. It's all very well doing a triple paradiddle - but who's going to know you've done it? If you play technically you sound like everybody else. It's being original that counts." ~ John Bonham
I was needing something lol. I just found something else I need while I was in there lol

Yep I had mine packed up for awhile. Now I'm messing around with the Vertical Mounting System on it in a smaller configuration.DSC01986.jpgDSC01987.jpg
Brian's right. About 40 years ago, I went into a music store in California to buy some heads and came out with a Buddy Rich White Pearl set of drums.

Love the figuring on that Mapex kit. Looks amazing.
I'm super impressed by those Mapex kits...
Mapex rocks!
I could honestly say that DW to me has the best tom suspension system out there! That's one thing they don't ever have to change! lol.
Look for used man, I got my 6 piece Saturn V with a copper DW snare for $1100 used and the kit is all but brand new.
