i'm interested in buying my first set of timbales (obviously, i'm a beginner)

what suggestions does anyone have for them? aluminum (cheaper)? go for the nicer ones (bronze)? start cheap til i get a better feel for them? brand (LP is the best?)? price range?

To be honest, I think any LP Timbale is brillient!!!

if you are new to timbales, then I'd begin by getting used to them. Even the low end LPs are imense quality!

I have been using CB rototoms for quite a few years now, and I am thinking that a set of timbales would be an interesting option as well.

I think The Mini LP timbales are great just for adding onto a drum kit, but any of the aluminium ones will do awesomely!
