I made a wish list of drums based on some gear I already own and on fulfilling these critera:
First, my ears don't take noise well and I play in acoustic as well as amplified settings.
Second, I like a tight, funky tone and a mellow, sweet sound.
Third, I have to move gear often and like to have everything within easy reach.
Here's what I came up with:
DRUMS [Sonor s classix]
Kick 20x18
clear PS3/Fiberskyn PS3 amb/evans pillow
Snare 13x5
Fiberskyn amb/hazy SS amb
Rack tom 10x8
Fiberskyn PS3 dip/clear amb
Floor tom 14x14
Fiberskyn PS3 amb/clear amb
LP Timbales 12x5 Fiberskyn dip
Cowbell on kick
CYMBALS [Zildjian]
13" K light hats
20" K ride
15" A custom crash
17" A custom crash
HARDWARE
Tama iron cobra twin power glide
Tama iron cobra HH
Tama air ride (timbales)
Yamaha heavy triple stand (crash + rack tom)
Yamaha heavy triple stand (crash + ride)
EXTRA
VF H5A maple sticks

Stagg metronome
