I was wondering how long it would take the average drummer to setup my drumkit.
In terms of drums I have a snare, a single pedal kick and 2 toms (1 up, 1 down), all of which are Pearl.
In terms of cymbals I have Pearl CX-200 hats, crash and ride, a Zildjian custom splash and a Meinl Headliner Crash-Ride.
Hardware for drums includes Pearl snare stand, pedal, floor tom legs and the Pearl rack tom "integrated suspension system" which attaches to the bass drum.
Hardware to hold cymbals includes Pearl H-790 (for hats), Pearl boom arm cymbal stand (for Pearl crash), Pearl non-boom arm cymbal stand (for Pearl ride), Pearl CH-70 combined arm and clamp (for Meinl crash-ride; attaches to Pearl crash stand) and Yamaha clamp and arm (for Zildjian splash; attaches to Pearl ride stand).
I timed myself after taking it down into what I considered would be a portable condition.
Setup is that of a typical four-piece; from right to left the cymbals go Hats, Crash-Ride, Crash, Splash and Ride.
I know it's a large chunk of information, I'll try and get some pictures up but I can't guarantee it'll work.
I also know that this is not an exact science, so just give me some approximations.
