For what seems like months I’ve been spending countless hours contemplating what acoustic kit I want to get. I had bought a used Pearl kit several months ago, but upon closer inspection, it was trashed. I sold it, bought a Roland TD-4 and started putting away for another acoustic kit.
It was between:
1. Whatever I could find used on Craigslist, and I was watching it at all times.
2. Sonor Safari (the inexpensive route)
3. Gretsch Catalina
4. Mapex Meridian
Well, I couldn’t take it any longer. I finally made up my mind and pulled the trigger on this brand new little emerald.
Mapex Meridian Birch 10/12/14/22
+ full hardware package. Boom stand, straight stand, snare stand, hi-hat stand, kick pedal. for $850. otd
The whole enchilada. On my Roland you can see I also have my practice pad set up so it pivots around where I need it. I can go acoustic, electric, or pad, all from the same seat.
I can also connect my laptop and cell phone through everything and do actual work IN my kit. (oh, if the boss only knew)
Now I need to start looking for some good used cymbals
Happy days
Thanks for looking..
