Got a new kit in January. Gretsch Renown Maple Rock configuration. It's a 24x16 bass, 16x16 floor, and 13x9 rack tom. Also got a Ludwig Black Beauty 7x14. LOVE this kit so far. My last kit was a 3-year-old PDP 805 series 5-piece with a Pork Pie 7x13 Little Squeeler. Nice mid-range kit for the punk band I used to be in, and I love the Little Squeeler, but I'm in a new band that's a little more old-school loud rock that needed a little more oomph.

Cymbals aren't new (except the ride, which was just replaced under warranty in December). Zildjian 22" A Custom Ping Ride, Sabian 18" AAXplosion Fast Crash as my main crash, Sabian 19" AAX Dark Crash as my side crash, and Sabian 14" XS20 hats. Hardware is a mix of PDP and Gibraltar stands, and a DW 9000 bass pedal.

Anyway, let me know what you think.

Love the finish. The Renowns are powerfully warm and vintage. I love my kit.

Terrific kit. I've never seen a finish like that. Awesome.

About time you signed up Cappy. Beats the hell out of posting pictures for yoor facebook friends. Nothing like a bunch of drummers appreciating your gear, which is just stunning might I add.

BTW Sir, that BB snare is a 6.5".

Is that white kit the acrylic one you were telling me about?

Nice kit man! Love that finish! Love the Little Squealer too.
