If you count the hihats for 2 pieces I've got 7, but I only use 4 of them, the other 3 are just junk that hang to the wall in my bedroom :D

Everyone has to start somewhere I guess, I suggest looking on craigslist for some cheap cymbals, you at least need a set of hats and a ride.
Oh sorry i have 2 of course i have a hihat and a crash
That is all you need to get started.

Nice Jobby do you have a picture of your kit, I would love to see it, very nice set-up.
Not at the moment (only some dodge phone pics from some recent gigs), but will organise for something in the near future - got some big shows coming up.Originally Posted by ddrumbum
I don't set up all the cymbals at the same time - but it's nice to have a selection to choose from (e.g. the remix crash and Dejohnette cymbal make a good jazz ensemble set - the 12 china and a 12 splash make a nice set of trash hats, etc.). I generally take a slimmed down 4 piece kit to punk gigs and the double-bass monster with all the trimmings to metal gigs.
Cool, sounds like your pretty versatile, I would like to here some of your stuff, and see your full set-up, you sound like a great drummer.
Cheers mate. Will have some new recordings done soon, so I'll post what I can on MySpace sites and the like.Originally Posted by ddrumbum
I've definitely checked out your set-up and think it looks kick-arse. Where are you going to mount the 2 new Wuhan chinas?
Jobby one on each side, and thanks for the compliments.
I don't own enough.......
14" Percussion Plus Hi Hats Made by Paiste (they actually sound ok)
12" Wuhan Splash
20" Paiste Rude Ride/Crash
It's a start...

Hey XJ99 absolutely it is a start, how do you like your 12" wuhan? I love mine, I am getting a couple bigger ones 16" & 18", I think they sound awesome, and they are totally cheap.
