Hey guys, I'm new to the forums here. Just looking for some input on a pro level kit. I'm 20, and have been drumming for 9 years now. I play at my church, 8,000+ people, so that gives me an awesome opportunity to play for a large amount of people on a regular basis. The church as an awesome yahama kit, but I feel like after all these years I deserve something for myself the play at my house or wherever I would need a kit.
I currently have a Yamaha Rock Tour kit, an intermediate kit, I got it around $1,200 new I believe around 5 years ago. It's been Alright, but I am ready to upgrade to an awesome kit that I can keep for a long time.
When it comes to pro level kits I am at a loss at what to get. I mostly play rock music, and love some progressive rock, some metal occasionally, got a Speed Cobra coming for Christmas! I absolutely love some deep booming toms with good tuning range and a powerful kick to accompany the toms. I've never really had good toms and that's what I would mostly want as an upgrade from the kit.
I am not near any big drum shops and have plenty of time before I get a kit as I'll need to save up for a few months at least, I just want to get some good input back to narrow down some decisions.
Thoughts so far are
TAMA bubinga or b/b
Or Mapex Saturn
Pretty narrow and would love input on those kits from people who know how they play, and any other pro level kits that you can suggest. Thanks!
