I've been playing for about 4 years now and getting to be a decent-ish (but still learning) drummer.
I've been playing a 3 piece kit since I started but always thought I'd like to go for a 3 up, 2 down kit *at some stage*.
I know this is a fairly open ended question and depends on many variables but when is it a good idea to expand the kit?
I see both sides of it- spending time working on fundamentals and being musical with less seems like a good idea.
Having more options also seems like a good idea.
What do you reckon?
